Vascular Low Frequency Disease Consortium
Vascular Low Frequency Disease Consortium
The VLFDC is a collaborative effort among investigators from institutions across the US and the world to study management and outcomes of uncommon vascular conditions. The collaborative effort allows for a large enough sample size to provide sufficient power for drawing meaningful conclusions that would otherwise be difficult to make with the small numbers of patients treated at any individual institution.
To date, the VLFDC has involved over 100 institutions and 200 investigators in the United States and internationally, and each completed project has resulted in presentations at national conferences and publications in high impact, peer-reviewed journals.
