Interventional radiology training: where will technology take us?

Abstract: Interventional radiology is a relatively young specialty, and it is undergoing a period of considerable growth. The benefits of a minimally invasive approach are clear, with smaller incisions, less pain, and faster recovery times being the principal benefits compared to surgical alternatives. Trainees need to acquire the technical skills and the clinical acumen to accurately deliver targeted treatment and safely follow up patients after the procedure. The need to maintain an efficient interventional radiology… Show more

“…Maintaining interventional radiology training, given its practical nature involving direct patient contact, is particularly problematic during a pandemic. 17 The most efficient and safe practice would be to limit the number of interventionalists required for a procedure, and that would typically mean that the interventional trainees are excluded from the room. Trying to deliver or supplement interventional training by online education or by the use of simulation models, is an option, 17 however, it is not an adequate substitute for clinical practice.…”

“…2 This teaching method has been applied in many fields such as pilot training, surgery, and nursing. [3][4][5][6][7] SBT helps students to gain more confidence before performing operations at medical facilities and ensuring patient safety. 2,8,9 Clinical instructions for radiologic technology students have traditionally been mainly carried out directly in the radiology departments, directly on patients.…”
