“…The life‐saving benefits of UAE in obstetrics (i.e., major obstetric hemorrhage) would be another incentive for its use in low‐resource settings. As Lessne et al 26 suggested, carefully planned resource allocation, training, and selection of patients are crucial in maintaining a safe and sustainable interventional radiology service in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs). A 2011 report from Brazil 27 demonstrated an excellent example of a novel adaptation on UAE in low‐resource settings.…”

Objective To determine treatment options (myomectomy vs. uterine artery embolization (UAE)) for women wishing to avoid hysterectomy. Methods A multicenter randomized controlled trial was conducted on 254 women and data were collected on fibroid‐specific quality of life (UFS‐QOL), loss of menstrual blood, and pregnancy. Results At 4 years, the mean difference in the UFS‐QOL was 5.0 points (95% confidence interval (CI) −1.4 to 11.5; P = 0.13) in favor of myomectomy. This was not statistically significant as it was at 2 years. There were no differences in bleeding scores, rates of amenorrhea, or heavy bleeding. Of those who were still menstruating, the majority reported regular or fairly regular periods: 36 of 48 (75%) in the UAE group and 30 of 39 (77%) in the myomectomy group. Twelve women after UAE and six women after myomectomy became pregnant (4 years) with seven and five live births, respectively (hazard ratio 0.48, 95% CI 0.18–1.28). There was no difference between the levels of hormones associated with the uterine reserve in each group. Conclusion Leiomyoma are common in reproductive‐aged women, causing heavy menses and subfertility. Among women with uterine fibroids, myomectomy resulted in better fibroid‐related quality of life at 4 years, compared with UAE but the treatments decreased menstrual bleeding equally. There was also no significant difference in the impact of treatment on ovarian reserve.

Medicine has increasingly incorporated simulation training amidst improving simulation technologies and evolving educational perspectives. This article examines the broad concept of simulation in medicine to focus, in particular, on its multifaceted value for providers and patients within the field of interventional radiology. Simulation technology ranges in degrees of fidelity, with new advancements notably in high-fidelity endovascular simulation, as well as in augmented and virtual reality. Current evidence on the validity of simulation within interventional radiology is promising, spanning training, credentialing, preprocedural planning, and team-building applications.

“…Interventional radiology (IR) is of great medical interest, given the potential achievable accuracy thanks to direct imaging during the medical procedure [1] [2]. Faster recovery time and the possibility of early and focal treatment are among the expected added values of IR [3] [4]. The number of percutaneous procedures, i.e.…”
