SIC Educational Resources

Anaesthetists, radiologists, ODPs and anaesthetic nurses who do not have regular Interventional Radiology lists are likely to be unfamiliar with some of the procedures and practices taking place in this clinical area.

The purpose of our Educational Resources series is to provide tips and advice that can be consumed quickly, giving clinicians the key information they need to manage patients safely and optimally.

Non-members will be able to view all articles through these web pages. BSIR Associate Members will also be able to access accompanying video content. To find this, please visit the BSIR Library.
