The ICAVL was incorporated in 1990 in response to the need for standardization and improvement of the quality of vascular laboratories. ICAVL accreditation is defined by the intersocietal concept that all aspects of vascular medicine be represented in the accreditation process, from the creation of the Standards to the review of each application for accreditation. A nonprofit organization, the ICAVL is supported by the following organizations while operating independently of their activities. Representatives from these organizations, listed below, make up the ICAVL Board of Directors.
