How do you get a sample from even the toughest bone lesions?
Dr. Peter Thurlow and Dr. Neil Jain (@DigitalAngio) explain why CT is their go-to, when ultrasound can work, and how needle trajectory software and 3D reconstructions make tough access safer and more precise.

How do plugs compare to coils and liquids for targeted vessel closure?
Dr. Harris Chengazi (@ChengaziMD) and Dr. Sabeen Dhand (@SDhandMD) reveal when plugs offer a smoother, more controlled option, and why smart sizing and deployment techniques can make all the difference in modern embolization.

The key to personalizing Y90 may not just be treating the tumor, but understanding how much radiation a patient can tolerate, where to deliver it, and when to safely push the dose.
In this episode of the BackTable Podcast, Drs. @bayouteazy and Ryan Hickey join host Dr. @kavikrishVIR to explore strategies for using Y90 in hepatocellular carcinoma and liver metastases. They combine real-world data from a study of nearly 1,000 patients with insights into methodology and the many variables that influence these procedures.

How does a brand new IR attending stay current?
On this episode, Dr. Gregg Khodorov (@GreggKhodorov) breaks down his approach: simulation, tumor boards, podcasts, and even building his own AI question bank.

@_backtableMSK @Georgetown_IR @NJIRSociety @EmoryIRad @JohnsHopkinsIR @SIRspecialists @SIR_ECS @SiemensHealth
From small or hard-to-reach lesions to challenging anatomy and prior exposures, every case can bring its own set of technical considerations. @junjian_huang and @MajidKhan_spine join @DigitalAngio to break down the art and strategy behind complex bone biopsies: from referral patterns and pre-procedure planning to guidance modality selection, diagnostic success, and complication management.

The BackTable team wrapped up their fantasy draft this weekend and now we're all looking forward to NFL kick-off. That said, who's your team?
Our Embolics Creator Weekend contributors got real about their teams: Ohio State pride, LSU, a dash of LeBron for the non-football fans, and some very loyal (very tortured) Jets & Giants fans.

A candid conversation about IR attrition, why residents are questioning the specialty, and most importantly, what we can do about it. Proud to host this one with @drmittelstein on BackTable🎙️
@theAPDIR @theAPDR @SIRspecialists @SIR_ECS @SIRRFS @Georgetown_IR
Why do nearly half of IR residents consider leaving the specialty, and what can be done to change that? 🤔
In this episode of the Backtable podcast, host Dr. Neil Jain (@DigitalAngio) interviews UCSD integrated IR resident Dr. David Mittelstein (@drmittelstein) about a national SIR survey on integrated interventional radiology (IR) attrition. Dr. Mittelstein discusses that pre-residency factors (demographics, prelim year type, prior specialty considerations) were not associated with questioning IR; instead, perceived value mattered more than quantity, including clinic value and junior-year IR experiences.

Six years of IR residency: 10% medicine, 90% asking, "Can we get another roadmap?”
Check out our reflection here ⤵️
🎙️ Now live on @_backtable: Dear IR Residency
@Georgetown_IR @VIR_RUSH @JeffCVIR @GreggKhodorov @AeshaPatel_1225 @SIRRFS @SIR_ECS @NJIRSociety @TheNRMP
What do graduating IR chief residents wish they knew before beginning residency?
From navigating complications and building confidence to leaning on mentors, co-residents, and patient relationships, @DigitalAngio, @AeshaPatel_1225, and @GreggKhodorov reflect on the lessons that shaped them over six years of training.

A bone biopsy can reach the target and still miss the diagnosis. In this crossover episode with @_backtableMSK, host Dr. Neil Jain is joined by Dr. Peter Thurlow to discuss how lesion selection, imaging review, trajectory planning, and device choice determine whether a targeted bone biopsy produces a useful sample without compromising future treatment.

There’s no single “right” path into IR- only the one that best fits your goals. Whether you’re a med student, resident, or mentor, I hope this episode helps make one of the biggest career decisions a little clearer. Give it a listen below! 🎧
@SIRRFS @SIR_ECS @ACRRFS @_backtable
With multiple training pathways, how can you determine which is the right choice for your career and clinical goals?
In this episode of the BackTable podcast, host Dr. Neil Jain (@DigitalAngio) speaks with interventional radiologist Dr. John Cieslak (@JohntheLab) about the Early Specialization in Interventional Radiology (ESIR) pathway and how it compares with integrated IR/DR and independent IR training routes.

An incredible journey with an amazing team. Six years ago, I was beyond excited to join the #HoyaIR fam. Today, calling myself a @Georgetown_IR-trained interventional radiologist feels surreal. Grateful for the training, mentorship, friendships & memories!
