Abstract
Clinical trials directed at evaluating the efficacy and safety of carotid artery stenting (CAS) have accelerated development of didactic and technical training programs for both newly trained and experienced vascular surgeons. This report reviews the current status of guidelines for CAS and the evolution of related educational programs necessary to impart the clinical, cognitive, and technical skills required for the optimal care of patients with this new technology.
