As long as there is no EEA directive about non-EEA doctors, the assessment procedures (diploma evaluation, medical-knowledge tests, language requirements, length of additional programmes, etc.) need to be coordinated.

Transplantation of hMSCs for myocardial regeneration may become the future therapy for chronic myocardial infarction.
