The UVA Department of Radiology and Medical Imaging has a great showing at the Society of Interventional Radiology’s annual meeting.
Several department residents and fellows delivered scientific presentations at the conference, which was held from March 23 to March 28 in Salt Lake City, Utah. Those trainees, and their presentations, are listed below:
- John Barrera, MD (PGY-4 Integrated Resident) — Advanced Imaging Techniques During Percutaneous Ablation of Occult Hepatic Lesions: Tips and Tricks
- Vishnu Chandra, MD (PGY-5 Integrated Resident) — Intravascular US During Tunneled HD Catheter Exchange: a Tool to Improve Technical Success
- Meghan Clark. MD (PGY-6 Integrated Resident) — Extreme IR Case
- Christina Dalzell, MD (PGY-2 Integrated Resident) — Contrast Extravasation on CT vs Splenic Angiography in Blunt Trauma
- Marc Kryger, MD (PGY-5 Integrated Resident) — Comparisons of Outcomes
- Hideyuki Torikai, MD (Body Imaging Fellow) — Association between Quantitative Perfusion Using Catheter-Directed CTA and Clinical Success in Patients with Critical Limbe Threatening Ischemia
Department faculty also participated in the conference — as both presenters and moderators. Those contributors were John Fritz Angle, MD; Ziv Haskal, MD; John Matson, MD; Alan Matsumoto, MD; Daniel Sheeran, MD; Amy Taylor, MD; and Luke Wilkins, MD.
In addition, three medical students from the University of Virginia School of Medicine also presented at the SIR conference:
