UCSF Interventional Radiology Review
Explore Key Topics
This CME program is a comprehensive review of significant topics in interventional radiology, and focuses on body interventions rather than neuro interventions. UCSF Interventional Radiology Review includes case-based lectures on topics like aortic aneurysms, arterial interventions, IVC filters, vascular disease classification and will help you to:
-
-
- Become familiar with the latest interventional radiology techniques, their indications and contraindications
- Identify the potentials and complications of new interventional radiology techniques for specific indications
- Accurately utilize imaging techniques like CTA, MRA and non-invasive arterial assessment into your daily practice
- Distinguish between different devices used for percutaneous ablation of liver and kidney lesions
-
Expand Your Skills
Available online, UCSF Interventional Radiology Review provides a maximum of 24.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits ™ and access to unbiased, evidence-based content and case-based reviews so you can expand your knowledge and incorporate the latest guidelines into your daily practice.

Learning Objectives
After viewing this activity, participants will demonstrate the ability to:
- Describe the contemporary methods of vascular recanalization, and be familiar with the common devices for endoluminal therapies with the indications for their use and associated complications
- Recommend percutaneous methods of lower extremity therapy for varicose veins
- Select and use the appropriate embolic agents for treating hemorrhage secondary to trauma and gastrointestinal bleeding
- Recognize indications for percutaneous nephrostomy, percutaneous abscess drainage and percutaneous biliary drainage, and the techniques used
- Evaluate contraindications to percutaneous biopsy
- Distinguish between different devices used for percutaneous ablation of liver and kidney lesions
- Recommend the use of and contraindications to hepatic arterial chemoembolization and Y90 radioembolization
- Utilize appropriate imaging techniques such as CTA, MRA, and non-invasive arterial assessment
Intended Audience
The activity was planned for radiologists actively practicing interventional radiology, and newly qualified interventional radiologists wanting to compare their knowledge and training with UCSF experts. The course is focused primarily on body IR, rather than neuroradiological interventions.
