The Clinical Services In IR Task Force developed a three-stage system for clinical services infrastructure development. This system shall help create awareness of the fact that different levels of service provision can be offered and worked towards. IRs may also use this system to benchmark themselves and set personal goals for future developments in their centre and practice. The three levels of clinical services infrastructure are split into #inpatient and #outpatient. What is your current level? Where do you see yourself in three years from now? What helps you or holds you back? Leave a comment to share your experience! Learn more about the three-stage system here: https://t.ly/8EvkP Task force members: Prof. Dr. Andreas H. Mahnken, Alessandro Cannavale, Joo-Young Chun, Thierry De Baere, Rok Dezman, Stevo Duvnjak, Miltiadis (Miltos) Krokidis MD, PhD, EBIR-ES, FCIRSE, FRCR, FSIR, Maria Antonella Ruffino, MD, EBIR, FCIRSE, Anthony Ryan, José Urbano García #IRgoingClinical #interventionalradiology #IRad #ClinicalServicesInIR

Today, we celebrate #WorldHealthDay, and the efforts of the CLINSPECT-M consortium to integrate mass spectrometry-based #proteomics into systems medicine by developing of standardized start-to-finish, fit-for-purpose workflows for clinical specimens. Testing different #samplepreparation and MS protocols on two clinically relevant sample matrices (plasma and cerebrospinal fluid), the six study partners conducted two studies, implementing the most promising protocols from the first round into the second. It was a great example of how the expert-driven exchange of knowledge and best practices can result in direct practical improvements that benefit the scientific community and, ultimately, patients. And it was especially gratifying to see our iST-BCT and SP3-iST kits do so well! Read more about the study and its results: https://ow.ly/wfVw50R3o5k

FLUIDDA is very excited to announce an important collaboration with the THREE LAKES FOUNDATION to investigate early predictors of progression of interstitial lung abnormalities (#ILA) using quantitative CT imaging. ILA, which may be an early sign of pulmonary fibrosis (#PF), is a common incidental finding on chest CT scans, but researchers have yet to determine why some patients progress while others remain stable. This cooperative endeavor, sponsored by the THREE LAKES FOUNDATION, will be undertaken in collaboration with investigators at Vanderbilt University Medical Center and Weill Cornell Medicine. We share Three Lakes Foundation’s commitment to improving time-to-diagnosis, quality of life, and outcomes for patients living with PF. #fibrosis #lunghealth #IPF

At the 2023 #IPSISAnnualMeeting in Chicago, Kim Filiatrault, MD, of the Centre Hospitalier de l’Université de Montréal, just accepted the award for Best ePoster. She presented “A Randomized Clinical Trial Comparing A Multi-tined Cannula And A Conventional Cannula For Cervical Radiofrequency Neurotomy: Secondary Outcomes Analysis Of Clinical Efficacy.” #IPSISEducation #IPSISResearch #InterventionalPainMedicine #PainMedicine #InterventionalPainManagement #PainManagement

DEIC 2023 (HEART FAILURE BRAZILIAN CONGRESS) -Among the BEST 3 clinical research papers in Congress 💗 I moderated a clinical case table of HFpEF (heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, discussing rare cardiomyopathies etiologies) I could also evaluate some posters and be evaluated. 🙌 #gratitude DEIC SBC #cardiologia #insuficienciacardiaca

Dr Elena Dizendorf, responsible of BrachyAcademy had two abstracts featured in the ESTRO 2024 Abstract book, download the ESTRO 2024 Abstract Book for further insights into these transformative initiatives: https://lnkd.in/eDseAyN6 Abstract 1 focuses on "Gynecological brachytherapy hybrid training: The Tata Memorial Centre and BrachyAcademy experience," detailing an innovative program aimed at supporting the transition to image-guided brachytherapy. Abstract 2, titled "Cadaveric training for H&N brachytherapy: experience of Tata Memorial Hospital and BrachyAcademy," explores an alternative approach to hands-on training in order to improve the confidence of radiation oncologists performing interstitial brachytherapy. #ESTRO #Brachytherapy #BrachyAcademy"
