As an editor, I can't tell you how many times I see cover letters where I just ... wonder? The first impression is the most important one, and too many times - it's not the best impression. How to write a compelling cover letter: a thread. NB: These are my views and mine only!

🧵regarding the 2-handed knot tying technique, and specifically whether it has *any* advantages over the 1-handed method. We'll cover why one should practice tying with a 2-handed technique, and also go over the important concept of why it's easier to tie 'up in the air'. (1/ )

When doing in situ laser fen, I find the use of the Aptus deflectable catheter the easiest one to use to quickly fenestrate and then stent. No longer do I predilate either as VBX stents tract well without need for pre-fill. #AortaEd

IMO most efficient way to do graft/fistula thrombectomy. I go IJ approach then 12F sheath and CAT 12 typically 1-2 passes and the fistula/graft is all open, single stick, no hands under fluoro, cleaner thrombectomy.. Anyone else doing this approach? #IR, #vascular ? BackTable Vascular and Interventional
