vascular cases are interventional in character, ranging from
angioplasty, fibrinolytic therapy, embolization and TIPS.
"Excellent fellowship - perfect preparation for private practice." - Dr. Jerry Matteo,
Fellow 2005-2006
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. The most recent graduates of our program
