[Reflections on the law relating to the protection of persons in biomedical research--concerning trials and experiments not about drugs].
This law, called the law of Huriet, was initially meant to control clinical trials of new medications and to protect "normal volunteers". It has been extended to all trials and all human experimentation, including those undertaken as a last resort and those used for research. It also concerns all new interventions or techniques in which experimentation is included in the therapeutic act, and which are the origin of real progress, day after day, in all manual activities. The example of interventional neuroradiology allows us to understand the consequences/risk of this law on the progress of this technique. Because of the lack of structure defining the acquisition of scientific knowledge in this field, this law will not be able to be applied, and the penalties proposed for not applying the law will result in many law suits.
