Inspired by the on-call pages asking when we can restart meds postprocedure. Grateful to work on this alongside my @UCSDRadRes and @ucsd_ir co-resident @mathewthomasmd and the all-star team
Watch a preview of the new SIR Guidelines App with developers Drs. John Do and Matthew Thomas, residents at UC San Diego. The app provides an easy to access reference for peri-procedural #IRad guidelines. @UCSDRadRes @ucsd_ir #SIRVAC

Attending on the inpatient oncology consult service is such a harrowing experience. It reinforces to me every time I do it that humans with end stage cancer should not spend the end of their life in the hospital #onctwitter #MedTwitter

A corollary to my last case. 12 cm #HCC treated with resin Y90 (300 Gy MIRD, 20K spheres/mL) + anti-reflux catheter. Very strong PR at 1 mo - I bet CR by 6 mo. Mild fatigue, otherwise no side effects. @SirtexMedical @TriSalusLifeSci @ucsd_ir
