Impressioni e commenti
Dear Friends,
Before we came here, we had expected to see many sophisticated machines and techniques in extracorporeal therapies. Indeed, we had found what we expected, but in another hand, we realized that these were just a little part of this wonderful center. Certainly, all of the medical staffs, nurses, and technicians are the heart of the success here. They are not only effective but also very generous. Furthermore, they are very lucky because they have the excellent director such as Professor Ronco. We had opportunities to present our works and share the idea with them. Gratefully, Professor Ronco had given us the chance and many advice which led us to develop the works that were more extensively useful beyond our sight. These were the precious that we did not anticipate. Finally, we would like to thank all of you very much for everything.
