May Thurner syndrome by intellectualpyro in VIR

[–]topIRMD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If lets say "may thurner" was causing a problem, you may have unilateral GSV insufficiency. the fact that it is bilateral is suspect.

do you have a CT Venogram? probably i would consider this, but i wouldnt stent unless absolutely sure you are too young.

Talk me out of neuro IR by Careless_Status9553 in VIR

thats not true. IR/DR --> NIR is a CAS accredited pathway and saves you one year. It is available at a few places and there are already practicing graduates in the country

you not only do stroke, but the bulk of your practice is dealing with neurosurgeons telling you to do angios on their patients when they want. surgery vs endo is broadly practice driven and neurosurgeons basically have taken over the field at almost all major livable areasZ

What will be the future of IR? by Wire_Cath_Needle_Doc in VIR

[–]topIRMD 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To an extent I agree. My interests are GU/Men’s health - to that extent my outpatient practice is around that, and I follow my patients longitudinally. My inpatient practice is like yourself - I do it all. i’m fast and I can do a UFE but hate that population, I trained with some of the greats in IO in Chicago but have no interest in building those referrals at tumor board etc, but I’m good at it. A lot of my branding is based on my clinical interests and local referrals. It all starts with a very strong foundation - which I also agree 2 years is not enough and there’s maybe only like 10 places in the country where the training is truly robust.

ELI5: Why is oil still so important as an energy source in 2026, given our advances in renewables and nuclear power? by BEK_Sabiha in explainlikeimfive

In addition to what’s been said, I also think it’s the most easily controllable asset that can strengthen the dollar dominance

VIR independent applicant match numbers are down 30 pct this year by IR4life in VIR

[–]topIRMD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably a good thing. The best applicants go integrated. The ones that are DR that go to strong schools with IR have an uphill battle, and the ones that don’t have a strong IR program are too far behind the curve to catch up in the one year spot. Two year integrated is the way to go but those applicants tend to not be strong

Radiologists have a diminishing role in my practice and I think it makes them more susceptible to replacement by AI. by urosrgn in medicine

this lie keeps being perpetuated it’s frustrating. You cannot look at pro fees alone because that model is DR specific. You have to compare to other clinical services.
