  • Ep. 618 How to Manage Advanced DVA Cases: Techniques & Tips with Dr. Kumar Madassery
    Feb 20 2026
    How do experienced operators approach the most technically demanding aspects of Distal Venous Arterialization (DVA)? In this episode of BackTable, host Dr. Sabeen Dhand sits down with Dr. Kumar Madassery for a detailed discussion of procedural strategy, technical decision-making, and real-world troubleshooting in DVA. --- SYNPOSIS Dr. Madassery walks through his approach from pre-procedure planning to final scaffolding. The conversation begins with imaging review, patient selection, and anesthesia considerations, emphasizing how preparation influences technical success. They then examine venous mapping and access strategy, with specific attention to femoral and tibial disease patterns and how these anatomic variables shape crossing techniques.This episode also covers wire and catheter selection, techniques for creating the arteriovenous anastomosis, balloon sizing, valve management, and stent scaffolding. Throughout, Dr. Madassery shares practical solutions to common access challenges and highlights decision points that can determine procedural durability. The discussion closes with reflections on clinical management, operator fatigue, and the value of professional networks when navigating complex limb salvage cases. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction03:08 - Pre-Procedure Imaging and Setup05:01 - Venous Access and Mapping07:27 - Anesthesia and Patient Preparation12:29 - Femoral and Tibial Disease Considerations23:17 - Crossing Techniques and Tools27:16 - Venous Access Challenges and Solutions35:54 - Creating the Anastomosis37:03 - Balloon Sizing and Scaffolding Techniques38:26 - Navigating Venous Access Challenges39:56 - Wire and Catheter Strategies42:08 - Dealing with Valves and Anastomosis44:16 - Proximal vs. Distal DVA Approaches47:01 - Scaffolding and Stent Techniques50:06 - Clinical Management and Case Fatigue01:01:10 - Networking and Seeking Advice01:05:41 - Concluding Thoughts and Future Directions

  • Ep. 617 Cybersecurity Essentials for Medical Professionals with Didier Jourdain
    Feb 17 2026
    Think your medical practice is safe from hackers? Learn why humans, rather than software, are often the weakest link in patient data protection. In this episode of the BackTable Podcast, host Dr. Chris Beck delves into the critical topic of cybersecurity in healthcare with Didier Jourdain, a certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP). --- SYNPOSIS Didier discusses his recently approved paper, 'Cybersecurity for Interventional Radiologists: A Clinical Imperative for Protecting Patient Data and Imaging Systems,' and shares his extensive background in software and application security, penetration testing, and cybersecurity risk governance. The conversation covers key issues such as phishing, ransomware, third-party vendor risks, and the vulnerabilities of the Internet of Medical Things (IOMT). Didier emphasizes the importance of education, tabletop exercises, and comprehensive third-party risk management strategies to enhance cybersecurity resilience in both hospital systems and independent physician practices. --- TIMESTAMPS00:00 - Introduction04:03 - Cybersecurity in Healthcare: A Clinical Imperative16:07 - Mitigating Cybersecurity Risks20:23 - Password Management and Best Practices27:33 - The Role of IT in Cybersecurity31:04 - Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) Vulnerabilities39:17 - Top Cybersecurity Recommendations for Physicians

  • Ep. 616 Exploring Unique Outpatient Models in Interventional Radiology with Dr. Richard Daniels
    Feb 13 2026
    How can patients receive more consistent interventional radiology care amid a national shortage of IR physicians? That question led Dr. Rick Daniels to develop a new outpatient practice model centered on recruiting independent IRs to provide long-term, fractional coverage for groups in need. In this episode of the BackTable Podcast hosted by Dr. Aaron Fritts, Dr. Daniels outlines the thinking behind this approach and how it aims to expand access to IR services in outpatient settings. --- SYNPOSIS The conversation examines the evolving landscape of IR practice, including the challenges associated with transitioning between practice settings and building sustainable outpatient service lines. Dr. Daniels walks through the development of his model, with particular attention to identifying and supporting outpatient embolization opportunities. The discussion also explores the consortium-style structure for independent IRs, emphasizing long-term alignment, professional autonomy, and scalability at a national level. Operational considerations such as technology partnerships, documentation workflows, and targeted marketing strategies offer a practical look at what it takes to make this model work. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction03:49 - Evolution of an Independent IR Practice05:30 - Challenges and Opportunities in Outpatient IR09:58 - Building Service Lines and Marketing Strategies18:34 - Forming a National IR Group25:21 - Balancing Business and Healthcare25:37 - Evaluating and Correcting Site Performance28:16 - Expanding Geographical Reach30:45 - Recruitment and Retention Challenges38:07 - The Importance of Tech-Doc Teams42:35 - Future Goals and Recruitment Efforts45:58 - Conclusion
