Great Michigan VIR resident and friend - ate lunch with him on his interview day and 2 years later traveled to Barcelona with him for @CIRSE last year!

Daniel Daniel Kirkpatrick has not been here long but has already taken an active role in med student education, resident recruitment and being a mentor and friend. Happy to have him on board!

If you are going to cannibalize your specialty, maybe don’t start with already burnt out residents.

Michelle is another rock star junior #IRad resident Michigan Radiology! She is future president of the UM House Officer union, and fought for 6 weeks pat leave and 12 weeks mat leave! Also her and her husband are great cat-sitters. Thanks for all that you do Michelle!

Happy Diwali! Little moments can go a long way.

We’ve been busy catching up with our cholangioscopy cases. For disease inaccessible by ERCP, #IR can clear stones and debris from liver ducts, biopsy and treat strictures, and get patients #tubefree Michigan Radiology Michigan Medicine Michigan Hepatology Michigan Surgery

For simple and complex IVC filter retrieval, thrombotic or nonthrombotic filter-related complications, #IR has the tools and skills to remove filters and treat filter-related complications. Patients are eval'd in IR clinic before getting their #FilterOUT Michigan Radiology U-M Health Frankel CVC

Hemoptysis due to bronchial artery pseudoaneurysm, treated with coil embolization. #RadRes and #FutureRadRes, what are the most common causes of hemoptysis in the US? The world? SIR RFS

New webcam $40. Hazy IPA $2. Realizing that today’s #FutureRadRes are amazingly qualified and you probably couldn’t compete 5 years ago... priceless.

Post op PVT requiring anticoagulation (AC) complicated by hepatic artery (HA) hemorrhage. #IR can quickly and safely #stopthebleed. Covered stent to maintain HA flow and exclude site of bleed. AC resumed PPD 1, patent stent 3 mo later, no biliary necrosis! SIR RFS Daniel Kirkpatrick

Too much applause, praise, and PR without actual substance or delivery by Michigan Medicine. Got more emails about the vaccines arriving than distribution. Doses are sitting idle. I’ll be okay sitting out the first rounds of COVID vaccines. But what about the frontline workers?

Instead of sharing my COVID vaccine selfie - sharing my parents’ COVID vaccine selfies. They’ve provided an incredible service to our Eastern KY community and patients for 30+ years and deserving of this first stride back to normalcy. Proud to be a fellow Pampati MD!

Mentioned this proverb a lot when interviewing for residency and discussing my decision to #couplesmatch. So far, so true, but a long way to go yet. #futureradres

Just sad and angry. Go home. Do something better and stand for something truly American. Or do nothing at all. Trump, fascism, and white supremacy are not worth anything.

Check your wire tips when you pull them out! Especially on the floor. If some is missing - call #IR! We can remove the foreign body, recan an occlusion, and place the line - sometimes with the same access. Satisfying quick case, expertly supervised by Daniel Kirkpatrick Michigan VIR

THIS is America. Can’t quantify the weight lifted off my shoulders, but there is still lots of work to do. @ShivaniPampati

SVC occlusion and SVC syndrome, malignant or benign, Michigan VIR clears the way! U-M Health Frankel CVC U-M Rogel Cancer Center
