Episode #64

MSK

How can we ensure long-term spine health after tumor ablation? In this follow-up to our previous discussion, Dr. Glade Roper returns to the show to focus on early kyphoplasty treatment for ablation patients, aiming to prevent kyphosis and postural fatigue syndrome.

Episode #63

MSK

Spine metastases are often painful and can impair a patient's ability to lie flat for radiation therapy. However, radiofrequency ablation (RFA) can address the bulk of the tumor and provide significant pain relief, enabling the patient to undergo radiation therapy. In this episode of BackTable MSK, musculoskeletal radiologist Dr. Glade Roper discusses his experience with spinal tumor RFA, his role on a multidisciplinary oncology team, and key considerations when planning for ablation.

Episode #61

MSK

Acetabular lesions present unique challenges for interventionalists due to their location within the pelvis. In this episode of the BackTable Podcast, host Dr. Jacob Fleming interviews Dr. Jason Levy, an experienced practitioner in musculoskeletal interventional oncology based in Atlanta, Georgia, about techniques for ablating acetabular lesions.

Episode #60

MSK

Tumor embolization is a versatile procedure that can provide symptomatic and long-term benefits for patients. In this episode of BackTable MSK, host Dr. Michael Barraza discusses musculoskeletal tumor embolizations with Dr. Gina Landinez from the Miami Cardiac and Vascular Institute, where she is helping to grow the MSK interventions program.

Episode #57

MSK

Building a top-tier musculoskeletal (MSK) interventional service line involves taking risks, continuously learning, and always being available for your patients, according to Dr. Igor Latich, an interventional radiologist at the Yale School of Medicine. Learn how to build and improve your MSK services in this week's episode of BackTable MSK.
