The Neurosonology Research Group (NSRG) WFN is dedicated to the promotion of science and research as well of education and training in the field of ultrasonic techniques and its clinical utilization. Therefore, international cooperation and the dissemination of scientific information within the field of neurosciences and neurosonology is part of NSRG WFN activities.

During Oct. 25-26, 2014, the Georgian Chapter of the NSRG WFN successfully conducted the second NSRG WFN Regional Meeting in Tbilisi, Georgia.

There were also participants from neighboring countries — Armenia and Azerbaijan. This two-day course was designed for individuals who are interested to perform and interpret neurosonology studies.
