Permission for such a trial must be obtained from the Local Medical Ethics Committee.•. New and unproven interventional procedures should be registered in the UK with the Safety and Efficacy Register for New Interventional Procedures (SERNIP).•. Compliance with the advice of SERNIP remains voluntary, but interventional radiologists are strongly advised to observe its recommendations. |
