Background

Atherosclerosis is a systemic disease involving all the major arteries including those of the heart, brain, kidneys, and extremities. PARC is a non-profit research organization of physicians with expertise in interventional cardiology, vascular surgery and vascular medicine that have a special interest in the study and development of new strategies to treat peripheral atherosclerosis.

Our Goals

To conduct multicenter clinical trials of endovascular and pharmacologic therapies for peripheral artery atherosclerosis.

To facilitate rapid enrollment of patients to address important clinical problems.

To disseminate and increase knowledge about peripheral atherosclerosis and its treatment, both to physicians and to patients
