Episode 4: Protection against the fear of radiation

Although there is no evidence for radiation risks for interventional radiologists, when protected, there are some papers that raise concerns. For wearing lead glasses, it is proven that cataracts are also a radiation risk. But for other potential risks there is currently no scientific proof. Does this mean that they do not exist? A few years ago, I also started wearing a special lead cap. For this there is no evidence that it will prevent brain tumors or late loss of cognitive functionality. Maybe we should add “Better Safe than Sorry” to the ALARA principle. In this podcast, we speak with 3 experts about how to deal with this Fear of Radiation. Guests: Stephan Rohde (Dortmund/DE), Werner Jaschke (Innsbruck/AT) and Colin Martin (Glasgow/UK).

Episode 3: Interventional radiology as an independent medical specialty

It is inconceivable, not to mention detrimental to patients, that interventional radiology (IR) still lacks recognition as an independent medical specialty. Minimally invasive techniques are the future of medical treatments, and IR has been a leader in this field for 60 years, inventing and executing new and innovative treatments. In this episode, we talk to two experts, Mohamad Hamady (Imperial College London, London/GB) and Michael Lee (Beaumont Hospital, Dublin/IE), about where IR stands and how to move forward. Be sure to read the editorial by M. Hamady and I. McCafferty mentioned in this episode: https://cvirendovasc.springeropen.com/articles/10.1186/s42155-020-00202-6.
