Specialist in Vascular Surgery Expert in the Diagnosis and Treatment of CCSVI

My name is Raffaello Pagani. I was born in Bergamo and have been practicing as a medical doctor and specialist in vascular surgery for over 40 years. I currently work at the NovaMed Center in Sanremo, where I focus on advanced vascular diagnostics and the treatment of Chronic Cerebrospinal Venous Insufficiency (CCSVI), with particular attention also to venous disorders of the lower limbs.

Throughout my career, I have collaborated with numerous private and public healthcare facilities across Italy, always maintaining an evidence-based approach, a commitment to continuous learning, and a strong focus on personalized diagnosis and treatment for each patient.

Experience and Training

After earning my Medical Degree with honors (110/110 cum laude) from the University of Genoa, I completed my specialization in Vascular Surgery at the University of Pavia. I pursued further international training in Barcelona, Paris, and Strasbourg, working alongside renowned experts such as Prof. Martorell, Prof. Franceschi, and Dr. Stemmer.

Over the years, I have participated in numerous national and international conferences, including the World Congress of Phlebology (UIP) in Monte Carlo and events organized by the Italian Society of Phlebo-Lymphology (SIFCS), where I also served as Vice President for the North-West Section.

A Commitment to Comprehensive Vascular Diagnosis

In recent years, I have devoted much of my work to the study and diagnosis of CCSVI, a vascular condition that can impact neurological, ophthalmic, and ENT disorders. I have published articles in peer-reviewed scientific journals in collaboration with fellow researchers across Italy and Europe, and I have been part of the team that explored the connection between CCSVI and conditions such as Multiple Sclerosis, Menière’s Syndrome, and other related disorders.

A Personalized Approach for Every Patient

My philosophy is simple: diagnosis comes first. Every patient has a unique story, and my mission is to provide careful, compassionate, and highly professional evaluations. By combining advanced diagnostic tools, clinical experience, and multidisciplinary collaboration, I guide each individual through a personalized treatment plan, with a strong focus on both effectiveness and safety.

Discover what CCSVI is, its main symptoms, the congenital or acquired causes behind it, and why a complete, personalized venous diagnosis is essential.
