    The American Transradial Association was formed by the Patient Medical Assocation and was formed to promote transradial interventions for the benefit of patients and those healthcare providers who choose to utilize this method of vascular access for interventional/endovascular procedures. We have been producing transradial education programs since 2005, with our first program for interventional cardiology fellows in Philadelphia. We have a goal of increasing transradial usage to 20% by 2013 and 70% by 2020 in the United States.
