Incredibly grateful for the support. Many thanks to my mentors (past and current Isha Jain Javid Moslehi KaelinLab, many others) and UCSF Cardiology UC San Francisco

Matthew Sample 100% of anything probably isn’t appropriate. If you can’t offer patients radial because you don’t have that skill set - it’s time and your lab needs to address that. If you’re 100% radial and you don’t have the ability to safely access a femoral - it’s time and your lab needs to

.Interventional Cardiology at Fort Miley was the 1st VA site in the #US to treat a patient using Boston Scientific’s AGENT Paclitaxel drug-coated balloon (DCB) to treat in-stent restenosis. Dr. Jeffrey Zimmet worked with fellows Rahul Goli & Nicky Herrick during the procedure. Joseph Yang Evelyn J. Song

👋An official welcome to Dr. Amir Munir who starts today. We are excited to have you at UCSF Health! #UCSFCardiology

Discover how being coachable, resilient, and committed to continuous improvement on the D1 Tennis Courts helped Dr. Eric Rothstein thrive in high-pressure environments in the Cath Lab. 🌟 #Inspiration #Resilience

Congrats 2 Mandar Aras, MD, PhD for his promotion to Associate Professor UCSF Cardiology! Mandar leads our amyloid program in the Section of #CardioOnc & Immunology! Lots of developments in amyloidosis. Looking forward to #ESC2024 for new treatments being announced!

Happy to share a patent pending! Looking for collaborators to take it further.. patents.google.com/patent/US20240… A wearable doppler device to get automated blood pressure, especially for #LVAD patients. #CardioTwitter #Innovation #MedTech #medtwitter #HealthcareInnovation #Trending

Alex Truesdell Any thoughts on rescuing that LIMA?

I was pleased to see that their findings agree with "Cohen's rule" as well-- never treat a lesion that is less severe than the patient's age (median age in NOTION 3 was 82).

Navin Kapur Sunil V. Rao Jason N. Katz And if one accepts that logic, then it’s equally critical for the tertiary/quartenary center to have an “open door” transfer policy— much like many do for STEMI. Otherwise, we are doomed to fail.

#1 Exciting news! A new sham trial evaluating role of PVI in AFib prevention is making headlines👇 Big win for evidence-based medicine! But, let me take an unpopular stance for a moment Was a sham-controlled trial EVEN NECESSARY for this study? 🤔 jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/…

John Mandrola, MD I am not an oncologist but when the median overall survival is 17 months with standard of care, additional 3 months is clinically significant. If QOL is maintained, this can mean a lot more meaningful life moments for patients.

Proud to announce the creation of the UCSF Pericarditis Center led by Alan Baik! Great addition to UCSF Cardiology Section of #CardioOnc & Immunology!

#InterventionalCardiology Fellows in NE Don’t miss the SCAI FIRST fellows edu event Tomorrow September 19 (1830) on high-risk complex #PCI. @ Del Frisco's Double Eagle Steakhouse (back bay, 888 Bolyston Street, Boston) ➡️ Register Now: scaipro.scai.org/URL/SF-Boston-…

curzen For PCI to work, we have to define the lesion at risk with high specificity. For medical intensification to work, we have to define the patient at risk. The latter seems easier to do than the former.

Truly unique clinical and investigative leadership opportunity here at BIDMC CVI and BIDMC Smith Center. We are interviewing visionary leaders in the field of structural heart intervention.

Great spotlight on Amir Munir! Dr. Munir completed #CardioOnc fellowship at UCSF Cardiology & just joined our faculty. He has been identifying novel mediators of myocarditis including chemokine receptors!

Anthony DiGiorgio, DO, MHA If you start from a place of “in what world does a government run bureaucracy operate more efficient than a private market” you end at “Medicaid only appears more efficient” and “that’s just their admin budget” 😒 Circular ⭕️ logic again…
