This is how radial perforation occurs. Just in seconds. So be 🐢 #CardioTwitter

Favorite Artery?

A dramatic complication of invasive imaging: aneurysm re-rupture. Some angiographers wouldn't even save these images, much less blast them on the pages of @NEJM. doi.org/10.1056/NEJMic…

As always, a high-yield talk by @tabby_kennedy on idiopathic intracranial hypertension at #Radiopaedia2024

Come and train at QEHB. 12 month interventional radiology fellowship starting September 2024. Excellent facilities. Great team and staff. Fantastic learning opportunity. jobs.nhs.uk/candidate/joba… @doctormehrzad @BSIR_News @cirsesociety @ISVIRIndia

@MikeJHsu How long back was the angioseal deployed ?? Interesting that there was an edge that the snare could hook onto.

Angioseal plug deployed into the artery causing stenosis; successfully retrieved using a clover snare. Note the deployment suture still attached to the collagen plug. #MedTwitter #irad #twittIR

Case 31: with @BhaveshPopat7 . CLI; pop occlusion; good distal BTK vessel run off; Mx: pop plasty+DEB; 4/5mm & 3mm at transition; images 👇 . #irad #meded #MedTwitter #CardioTwitter #interventionalradiology #virad #radres #clifighters @CLIfighters @_backtable @VascularForum

Was the dissection that bad ? Do these BK stents stay patent/ are they drug eluting ? Also, did you not consider plasty of the TPT stenosis? Thanks .

Case 23: with @BhaveshPopat7 . CTLI; Prox ATA focal occlusion - post plasty dissection, Mx with focal BMS; PTA long seg occlusion - failed recan; Peroneal plasty leading to posterior supply via collateral Final 2 vessel run off . #irad @CLIfighters @SIRRFS @SIR_ECS @VascularForum

King Charles->3days in hospital for surgery on an enlarged #prostate(BPH).Had he met an Interventional Radiologist,he would have undergone Prostatic Artery Embolization (PAE), had a bandaid on his wrist, no catheter,& left same day.PAE: 10yrs of durable now--what men need & want.

Applications are now open for our training, education and exams awards 🏆 These are for undergraduates who engaged in elective periods or studied abroad, as well as societies that demonstrated activity in the preceding year. Learn more: rcr.ac.uk/career-develop…

#CIRSEtakeover @DrNeilGuptaIR Day 2: Every day in IR @RadiologyUhcw begins with a morning safety huddle & team brief, where we discuss & plan the cases of the day. Today I'm the Acute IR, with @drsankar23 running an Elective IR list.

@IndiaIsvir @ISVIRIndia #irad Interested in training in the west midlands UK??

@IRadMahay @LNWH_NHS All the best @IRadMahay

Very fascinating excerpt. Key lessons: 1. Medical Tribalism is real 2. In IR we have to adapt. That means focus on longitudinal clinical care and leaving the diagnostic radiology umbrella. 3. We didn’t really learn any lessons. Why?

Reminding all Radiology applicants this year, if you have a keen interest in IR make sure to look into the CR(I) ST1 training posts that recently been introduced! More information here: tinyurl.com/34sy44bc @BSIR_News @TraineesBSIR @RCRadiologists

Challenging Cases: 84yo WM w/AS, did TAVR. Used single Proglide in LCFA. Proglide got stuck and foot plate mechanism would not disengage from Ca+. We deconstructed and safely removed from the arteriotomy. Fantastic tips & tricks, big credit to Dr Amy Daliman @TAVRBot⁩

Join the #irad team @RadiologyUhcw Here's 2 of our awesome Band 6 IR Radiographers: Crazy Craig & Loopy Leah @SimeoneLeah doing selfies @BSIR_News #BSIRASM22 whilst me & @drsankar23 sensibly study some of the latest tech.

Great to see @RCRadiologists President @halliday_kath talking at #BSIRASM22 demonstrating an excellent understanding of the #IRad challenges facing @BSIR_News @TraineesBSIR @IR_juniors Super proud @RadiologyUhcw @nhsuhcw we are well on the way to achieving most of these goals
