Straight from the OR: Dr. Nikki Keefe (@NikkiKeefe) from UNC (@UNCRadiology) walks through vertebral augmentation, from needle placement to cement, the way she'd teach a colleague at the table.
Watch on Wysdom: app.medicalwysdom.ai/pearls/…
Of course, @GSalazar_MD leading the way in PEVD education. I would expect nothing less from her :)
A new Wysdom Radio episode is out with Gloria Salazar, MD from @UNCRadiology
Listen to the podcast on all platforms, including the Wysdom app.
