  • BT is an asset to IR

    This podcast provides a valuable service to Interventional Radiology. As someone who has practiced in a diversity of settings from premier academic, to private practice, to OBL. I feel that this podcast has valuable content for every practice setting.

    You can listen to specific episodes on procedures you are developing and it will definitely help you get started and get better. Listening to episodes on procedures I am not involved in has also re-stimulated my curiosity and love for IR.
