    Episode 49: Owning success: What journal editors wish authors and reviewers knew

    Episode 49: Owning success: What journal editors wish authors and reviewers knew

    There is a shift in academic medicineacademic radiology. We don't necessarily have the soft research time that we had before. The clinical demands are so great that I am concerned about who is going to be generating the science in the future.—Ruth Carlos, MD, FACR, Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of the American College of Radiology

    As part of the "Owning Success" series, host interventional radiologist Barbara Nickel Hamilton, MD, FSIR, speaks with Ziv J Haskal, MD, FSIR, editor emeritus of SIR’s Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology (JVIR), and Ruth Carlos, MD, FACR, editor-in-chief of the Journal of the American College of Radiology (JACR), about the unique opportunities the editor role provides, what they wish authors and reviewers knew, and more.

    Episode 48: Unlocking radiology's potential: The synergy between interventional and diagnostic radiology

    Many people are sort of viewing it as an either/oreither you have an OBL or you're tied to a diagnostic department. And from my perspective, it's like  ... it's actually synergistic to have both. —Radiology Chief James Brink, MD, FACR

    Host interventional radiologist Warren Krackov, MD, FSIR, speaks with James Brink, MD, FACR, chair of radiology at Massachusetts General Hospital and the Brigham and Women's Hospital, about whether interventional radiology and diagnostic radiology are stronger together, what brought him to support IR services in his radiology practice, the Society of Interventional Radiology and American College of Radiology town hall on the topic, and more.

    Sound of IR 1: VIR Legend Dr. Stanley Baum

    "I remember the first case ever referred to us: It was a young patient who was riding on a motorcycle. He crashed and ruptured his pelvis. He was bleeding out, and we didn't have any material to embolize with. So I took his blood, and kept stirring it until it coagulated on itself, and then I injected clots into the artery that was bleeding. It stopped, and we become heroes at MGH. Then the whole field just exploded." Stanley Baum, MD, FSIR, reflecting on the early days of interventional radiology

    In this episode, which was first published in 2022 on the Sound of IR podcast, host Eric Cyphers spoke with Stanley Baum, MD, FSIR (1929–2022), about his journey and experiences in interventional radiology.
