"East Asian Friendship for Patient Happiness"

It is my great honor to welcome you to the 16th East Asian Conference on Neuroendovascular Therapy (EACoN 2026). We are delighted to host this meeting in November 2026 in Sendai, a beautiful city known as the "City of Trees."
The theme of this conference is "East Asian Friendship for Patient Happiness." Our field has seen incredible progress in medical devices and techniques. However, I believe that technology alone is not enough. To truly help our patients, we need strong trust and friendship among physicians beyond borders.
By sharing our knowledge and experiences within East Asia, we can improve the quality of treatment throughout the entire region. This close cooperation is directly linked to the happiness and well-being of our patients and their families.
I hope that EACoN 2026 will be a wonderful place for all of us, especially for the next generation of doctors, to build lifelong bonds. I look forward to seeing you and having inspiring discussions in Sendai.
