Abstract
The American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology (ABPN) has established a certification process for the subspecialty of vascular neurology. In addition, the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education has approved residencies (fellowships) in vascular neurology in the United States. These steps are in response to the growth of a special body of knowledge related to the diagnosis and treatment of patients with cerebrovascular disease. The certificate in vascular neurology recognizes those ABPN-certified neurologists or child neurologists who have demonstrated proficiency in the management of patients with vascular diseases of the central nervous system. This may have implications for similar initiatives in other countries
