Yan Epelboym, MD, MPH, discusses embolization and ablation for OA-related knee pain and why they are good options to consider for patients who have not responded to other nonsurgical treatments.

Glad to see increased patient awareness of these treatments for osteoarthritis related knee pain. Thank you @TheRealDoctorOs for helping to highlight how interventional radiology can help. GAE and GNA is offered at BWH as well as in other IR practices. https://t.co/zfWq4t5sqr
An estimated 30 million Americans — or more than 11 percent of the adult population — suffer from knee osteoarthritis, the degenerative disease that prompts most knee replacements. For those who don’t want to undergo the surgery, other options exist.

Excellent visual summary of long term Genicular Artery Embolization outcomes for osteoarthritis related knee pain from UCLAIR @RooshiParikh
Great new visual abstract on geniculate artery #embolization for patients with knee pain from arthritis. Excellent to see prospective data base and trials in this space run by #IRad. Shout out to @RooshiParikh for putting together!

An excellent article on angiography-CT applications in IR by @TheRealDoctorOs and colleagues. Will be considering these excellent case examples as we launch our angio-CT at BWH this month.
Check out our latest review on Angio-CT in @JVIRmedia , nice collaboration with @NorthwesternIR

Glad to collaborate with @btaslakianMD & Christiana Salami on this instructional guide about GAE. Genicular artery embolization is an emerging procedure used in the treatment of refractory osteoarthritis related knee pain. @MassGeneralNews
Bedros Taslakian, MD (@btaslakianMD); Christiana Salami, MS; & Yan Epelboym, MD (@YanEpelboym), dive into GAE with an instructional guide offering tips on navigating patient selection, imaging, & procedural technique.

Genicular artery embolization is an emerging minimally invasive therapy for refractory knee pain due to neovascularity and synovitis in patients with knee osteoarthritis. There is also developing data on its use for chronic refractory post knee replacement pain.

Vascular IR’s perform LIFE-SAVING clot removal in PE But can you medically manage the same patient when they go into RV failure and shock? Know the procedure AND know acute patient care Go from proceduralist 🔨 ➡️ clinician 👨⚕️👩⚕️ @WCVISociety @SIRspecialists @VISLAMDSCAIP

@Arthrofibrosis_ @_ShahWali @walsterIR @alihusnain186 Please see our paper that addresses perfusional changes post GAE. Post embolization, perfusion to the abnormal neo-vessels is reduced/eliminated but parent vessel flow of the geniculars stays unchanged. The field is also now moving to temporary embolics.
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Quantification of intraprocedural perfusion changes with GAE demonstrated reduced flow to the TV with maintained flow in the PV and acceptable clinical outcomes. A potential relationship between...
