Interventional Radiologist (#iRad) in Huntsville, Al. Trying to keep my procedures and my tweets minimally invasive.
- This day was one of the best of my professional career. We talked, texted, or did a procedure weekly for 2 1/2 years. Over this time, he underwent: 176 paracentesis 2 TACE 1 port placement 1 TIPS and 2 portal thrombectomy By the end of the first year, I had lost all
- Clinically submassive saddle PE removed intact w a single pass - one of the few times I thought to catch on video! Systolic PAP ⬇️ 21mmHg. Discharged 2 days later Ps- I’m told this is our group’s 500th mech thrombectomy case! 🎉 #iRad
00:00 - Trauma patient with submassive PE, expanding pelvic hematoma, respiratory failure. Embolized the pelvic bleed, then PE thrombectomy and IVC filter, and finally a chest tube for effusion. Nice example of #iRad as a #onestopshop for minimally invasive care

- Private practice IR over here reporting in to let you know that it’s not all gloom and doom and that clinical IR isn’t withering, with the supporting evidence that our diagnostic/interventional group opened our new clinic today 🎉🎉 #iRad
00:00 - Difficult PE case thread 🧵 Intermediate-high risk PE patient taken to angio for thrombectomy 24 French catheter corked in the right main PA and retracted into IVC
