Does what an interventional radiologist wears matter? A new study in @CVIR_Journal finds that while most patients prioritize quality of care over appearance, scrubs and white coats can still influence confidence and trust!
@KECKSchool_USC @UWRadiology @CVIR_Journal @cvirendo
Should Interventional Radiology remain integrated with Diagnostic Radiology or become independent? Clinical autonomy, resources, and support are key to advancing patient care. Thank you, @RSNA, for including me!

What drives cost of iliocaval venous stent reconstruction? Our study found ~$26,000 per case, with 83% from disposable materials. Venous stent price and number were the biggest cost drivers.

Research is an important part of Interventional Radiology. This practical guide provides a straightforward approach to turning clinical questions into meaningful research, presentations, and publications.
@KECKSchool_USC @UWRadiology @SIRspecialists @cirsesociety
A practical review of contemporary endovascular VTE management, from DVT and PE risk stratification to thrombectomy, patient selection, and treatment algorithms. The goal: durable outcomes and better patient care.
@KECKSchool_USC @UWRadiology @InariMedical @VenousNews @EVToday
A successful Interventional Radiology thrombectomy program goes beyond the procedure, combining multidisciplinary collaboration, patient selection, clinical judgment, and meticulous technique to deliver comprehensive care.
