Transcript:

Hi, everyone. My name is Nadine Abi-Jaoudeh. I am the Section Chief of Interventional Radiology at the University of California Irvine. I am also one of the course directors for the CIO.

This year we're back in Miami and we have another amazing program for you. In addition to the fundamentals and then kind of bringing you back up to speed and everything that is happening in oncology, we have the Summit for Breast Cryoablation, and for [musculoskeletal] MSK interventions, and a lot of things in terms of innovation, to show you the forefront as well.

One of my favorite parts is the debates, how to argue with the radiation oncologist or the surgeon, to get the case. The debates are a case presented and 2 people argue what the other side would argue to get the case versus what an IR should say and what literature you should bring up to really get those cases.

The really fun thing is that, it's a smaller meeting, so you get to catch up with everybody and a lot of networking as possible as well as connections in addition to learning great science.

I really hope to see you there.
