Fellow 2010-2011  The Interventional Radiology Division offers three positions per year in its ACGME approved fellowship program. The section, which is staffed by four faculty members, performs procedures on about 6000 patients per year. Our Heart and Vascular center features four state-of-the-art Siemens angiographic suites with the latest in CT technology, including a dual-source CT scanner capable of performing high resolution volumetric imaging for vascular imaging and cardiac imaging. Our 2011-2012 Fellows  Dr. Carlos Ledezma, Dr. Elliott
Mueller and Dr. Ricardo Yamada
In
addition to vascular and drainage
procedures, the vascular/interventional
section routinely performs biopsies under
fluoroscopic, CT or ultrasound guidance. A
considerable number of vascular cases are
interventional in character, ranging from
angioplasty, fibrinolytic therapy,
embolization and TIPS.
Furthermore, MRI and CT examinations associated with the vascular system, as well as requiring interventional expertise, are performed by members of each section. The fellows are encouraged to participate in the many ongoing clinical trials within the division, as well as animal research. A tremendous
expansion of the services has opened up
with the addition of the new Heart and
Vascular Center in MUSC's Ashley
River Tower.
