Taunting the crowd while the play is going on — with your back to the field — and then tipping the ball to the wide receiver to lose on a Hail Mary is a hell of a film review.

#VIRad is the #MacGuyver specialty. I know I could have just opened a longer wire, but already had two short ones and a micro kit open. Used this technique to extend a 75cm amplatz to allow catheter exchange for APDL without losing access into a transplant kidney. @_backtable

Designed for caval and extremity deep vein use, dedicated venous stents (Venovo and Abre) aim to provide a balance of flexibility, radial force, and crush resistance and may prove useful for splanchnic vein reconstructions. @cirsesociety @CVIR_Journal @cvirendo @UWRadiology
