Highlights from the past IR symposia hosted around the country
In the fall of 2014, the University of Colorado Radiology Interest Group under the leadership and sponsorship of Dr. Paul J hosted the first IR symposium.
On October 10, 2014, Brown University’s Vascular and Interventional Radiology Interest Group hosted its third annual VIR symposium. Attendees included medical and undergraduate students from across the country who convened in Providence, RI for the half-day event.
In May of 2014, medical students Shawn Barton, Kareem William, and Mary Ellen Koran hosted the first IR symposium. We had three vendors bring in their latest technologies in cryo, radiofrequency, and microwave ablation techniques, which students were able to test out on cow livers we purchased from a local butcher.
