JVIR audio 2: Mitigating the contrast media shortage

"Interventional radiology practices are faced with instituting urgent changes in patient care to preserve contrast media for use in procedures for which alternative options are not available, or in emergent scenarios. In this communication, we propose an initial approach to case prioritization, as well as short-term strategies for management of existing supply to optimize utility and minimize waste."

This recording provides an audio version of a special communication published in the Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology (JVIR), "Mitigation Strategies for Interventional Radiology During a Global Contrast Media Shortage," by Nikki Keefe, MD, Kush R. Desai, MD, FSIR, Maureen P. Kohi, MD, FSIR, and Gloria Salazar, MD, FSIR.

Read the Article in Press version of the article on the journal's website, jvir.org, including references and tables on "Interventional radiology procedure prioritization" and "Use of alternative contrast media."
