Ulas Bagci, Andrew Gordon and Ahsun Riaz received recognition as Mentors of the Year at the Northwestern University Radiology Research Day on June 5, 2025. Their work reflects Northwestern's strong teaching and mentoring values. @ulasbagci@AhsunR
Awesome work by Alec Jost & @hsinghIR getting data out this quickly from their SIR Foundation-funded registry! This has truly been a well-organized, collaborative effort amongst many interested IRs from across the country. @JVIRmedia#IRad
Join the conversation with Daniel Borja-Cacho, MD, Aziz Aadam, MD ,and Ahsun Riaz, MD, as they discuss a complex biliary case involving a patient with advanced stage cancer.
Peak moment of my life as an aspiring interventionalist—I matched at my #1 choice! All thanks to my incredible mentor, @AhsunR, who not only inspired me to dream of it but also helped me achieve it.
Here’s to dreaming big and beating the odds!

@DrNeilGuptaIR@nhsuhcw Great job, Dr Gupta. We have done double cholecystoduodenal stenting in 65 patients at Northwestern.
Our initial experience without lithotripsy https://t.co/1zLFE2Siz2
Now we do lithotripsy and stone retrieval.
Minimal pancreatitis in 8% patients.

@EzraTeitelbaum@DouglasAdlerMD@mj_pucci@SIRspecialists Thank you, Ezra! I believe this option (percutaneous lithotripsy with dual cholecystoduodenal stenting) is a viable one for patients with percutaneous cholecystostomies who want to get their drains out!
Beyond excited and looking forward to present our work at #SIR24SLC from @NorthwesternIR on complex hepatobiliary interventions alongwith @Chris_Neely_ . Incredibly grateful to the mentorship of @AhsunR and special thanks to the amazing team.
