@SIRRFS@dougbeall@Brandon_Allen3 @NihilAbraham @ravityagi200 Excellent discussion… but should we call this kyphoplasty (based on the kyphon company) or Vertebral Augmentation. And should we limit VA to balloons and not include discussion of mechanical augmentation or other tools?
@JLynchDO Will be discussing how to reduce the opioid epidemic with chiropractor society next week by treating the pain generator, not masking with systemic narcotics @ImagingDoctor@dougbeall@jdprologo
@DrSteveElias Excellent to have multidisciplinary consensus since VS, IR, and IC have been in different places historically but now, more than ever, are assessing venous incompetence vs outflow obstruction as distinct diagnoses and management @ImagingDoctor@venousedge@OEISociety
Beyond interventional oncology: Genicular nerves cryoneurolysis for knee #osteoarthritis is an effective & safe therapeutic procedure to treat chronic pain and increase functional capacity.

(1/2) At about 9:30PM yesterday, Mercy Flight’s Batavia-based helicopter N505TJ was involved in a hard landing near the Genesee County Airport. No patients were onboard at the time of the incident, and all four of the Mercy Flight crew members involved sustained no injuries.
(2/2) The condition of the aircraft is being evaluated, and Mercy Flight’s spare helicopter ensures that there will be no immediate disruption of service to the community. We would like to sincerely thank all those who have offered their support and well-wishes during this time.
Great new @TheStrykerIVS video pretty much says it all about the hazards of #VCFs and the proven value of #vertebralaugmentation
