ALOHA from Hawaii

The Western Angiographic & Interventional Society (WAIS) celebrated its 50th annual conference this past fall held September 24-29, 2022 at the Fairmont Orchid on the beautiful Island of Maui.  Though I was unable to attend, (I was probably already shoveling myself out of a prairie snowstorm), a few BC IRs made their way to Hawaii and have reported back on what they got up to.

Now I had never heard of WAIS, it seems like an exclusive club, and to a degree it is.  The WAIS membership region covers 15 Western States and British Columbia Canada, including Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon, Texas, Utah, Washington, Wyoming, and British Columbia Canada.  I may email them and see if they would consider Saskatchewan western enough.

The conference covers a wide spectrum of Interventional radiology topics and includes M&M Case Presentations, Rapid Fire Clinical Rundown and The Charles T. Dotter Memorial Lecture, this year given by Dr. Barry Katzen.  This year, CAIRs very own Dr. Lindsay Machan was recognized as a Luminary in Interventional Radiology, he is also a past president of WAIS. Other Canadian past presidents include Dr. David Liu. Aside from potentially rubbing elbows with the above name dropped IR heavy hitters, this year Dr. Nevin de Korompay, IR from Kelowna BC and WAIS member, had the privilege of meeting both Dr. David Kumpe and Dr. Tom Sos, I suspect you’ve used their catheters once or twice.

In conclusion, if you are only able to attend one conference a year I would recommend the CAIR Annual Scientific meeting in Quebec, QC, May 25-27, 2023.  But if you are looking for a conference in the fall that is held in Hawaii every 2 years consider WAIS (you don’t have to be a member to go to the conference and there is an excellent conference rate at a beautiful hotel). Maybe see if Dr. Machan can get you the member rate if you don’t live in BC?

Are you a medical student, resident, or fellow and thinking of submitting a case for the RFS Virtual Angio club but are unsure where to start?

Please just hear me out!  I know it is annoying, but I am back to make another plug for the Royal College Exam in Interventional Radiology.  I realize no one enjoys exams, and specifically paying lots of money to take an exam that they are unsure or unclear of the benefit. I get it. But in case you have been thinking about it I wanted to encourage you to consider it.

Here is what Dr. Stephen Ho, Chair of the Specialty Committee in Interventional Radiology at the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada wants us all to know about the potential impact of this exam.

“I believe that the future of Interventional Radiology in Canada is in our hands to shape and guide. By obtaining certification, we are committing to excellence and taking IR to the next level. Having Royal College certification identifies us as experts, for the benefit of our patients and for contributing to advancement in our field. I would like to encourage all practicing IRs in Canada to take this opportunity and show our merit!”

The next exam will be Wednesday September 27, 2023, though if you haven’t registered already you will need to get your registration for the Fall 2024 exam submitted by August 31, 2023.  Please enjoy this link to the Royal College information page for the Interventional Radiology exam and consider signing up.

Francine Heelan is a PGY3 resident in Radiology at Dalhousie. Francine’s research in the gender discrepancy in IR within Canada was recently selected for an oral presentation at the SIR conference in March.

Francine previously completed her undergraduate studies in biology and chemistry at Acadia University. Subsequently she had the unique opportunity to work alongside Dr. Robert Abraham, a staff interventionist at the QEII Health Sciences Center in Halifax, at ABK Biomedical Inc., a company in which Dr. Abraham was a co-founder and prior CEO. In her position as a biomaterials research technician, she assisted in the research and development of radiopaque bland embolic microspheres and radiopaque Y90 radioembolization microspheres prior to completing her medical degree at the University of Ottawa.

Her research is focused on the gender disparity in interventional radiology within Canada. Her co-authors on this study include her supervisor, Dr. Daria Manos, current President of the Canadian Society of Thoracic Radiology and Associate Head of Education in Dalhousie Radiology. Dr. Manos has previously published in the field of gender gaps in radiology within Canada. Dr. Abraham also serves as a co-author, as well as Dr. Mo Abdolell and her two co-residents Dr. Morgan Lawley (PGY3) and Dr. Jessica Dobson (PGY3). Their research aim was to examine factors that may contribute to the gender disparity in IR at the resident level through conducting a national resident survey last year.

If you are headed to SIR this will be presented at the ‘Practice Development’ oral presentation session on March 8, 2023 in the afternoon.

François discovered IR as a medical student at Laval University, while attending an information cocktail organized by the CAIR. After two elective rotations in vascular and non-vascular IR, he decided to do his residency in Radiology with the goal of pursuing a career in IR. In his IR rotations as a resident, he has particularly stood out for his technical skills, his teamwork, and his easy-going personality. He is currently PGY-5 in the IR residency program at Laval and he is actively involved in the IR community, as the representative for Laval University within the CAIR resident and fellow section, and as the member/resident responsible for the organization of the CAIR virtual angio-radiology clubs for trainees.

Throughout his PhD studies in Microbiology and Immunology at McGill University and his medical training in Radiology at Laval University, François has successfully completed several large-scale research projects published in high impact factor journals (Lancet, Immunity, The Journal of Experimental Medicine). This has allowed him to develop both advanced and varied fundamental and clinical knowledge, a keen critical sense and a talent for research. His numerous awards and scholarships bear witness to this, including the Gold Medal of the Governor General of Canada. Most recently, he has done research projects on venous interventions with Dr. Mathieu Béland (JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions) and on artificial intelligence (AI) as a tool to predict response to cancer immunotherapy in partnership with clinician-scientist Dr. Philippe Joubert and the AI company Imagia (Journal of Immunotherapy of Cancer, in press).

When he is not working, François enjoys spending time with his wife and two daughters, traveling, and working on electronic music in order to prepare his upcoming live DJ sets. Indeed, he has been DJ-ing for almost 20 years! He has held DJ residencies in Montreal, at Salon Daomé, and in Quebec City, at Le Cercle and La Cuisine. He also played in prestigious Montreal’s events Igloofest and Piknic électronique. You can listen to some of his DJ sets on his Souncloud page (https://soundcloud.com/frankcou).

“What I love about IR is that it is a relatively new and expanding field in medicine. It is a field that requires both creativity, for problem solving, as well as increasingly more evidence-based research in order to be better recognized by our peers. With my background, I think I can contribute to both aspects, and this is highly motivating!”
