PE having a moment. It is the third leading cause of cardiovascular mortality but doesn’t get the attention it deserves. We need more people to speak up like this and discuss the symptoms and potential treatment options. @PERTConsortium @WashUIR
"I had a calf injury that ended up being a pulmonary embolism..
The blood clots left my calf & got into my bloodstream..
They went thru my heart & ended up in my lungs..
I've been on blood thinners ever since & I'll be on them for the rest of my life" ~ @KirkHerbstreit

Literally had a patient in my clinic TODAY that was entirely opposed to the idea of AI replacing the human physician/patient interaction. Not sure this will be mainstream anytime soon.
Thanks to the @PERTConsortium for the opportunity to present these challenging cases. Great to hear the perspectives from my fellow panelists as well!
Learning from the past, @kavaliIR sharing the realities of the challenging decisions PERT teams make everyday. As we incorporate our new classifications, collectively we have to challenge years of practice patterns and assessment.
I’ll be at @EndovascularNY this year!
Join in-person at this top endovascular meeting, hosted September 24-26 in NYC.

This Ryanair Boeing 737-800 was just seconds from touchdown when it flew straight through a flock of seagulls.
Several birds struck the aircraft, with some being ingested by its CFM56-7B engines. Despite multiple bird strikes, both engines continued operating normally, allowing the aircraft to land safely. It's estimated that at least 20 seagulls were killed in the incident.
Full house at the St. Louis Angio Club tonight listening to great case presentations from some excellent speakers! @SIRspecialists @WashUIR @WashUMedMIR
Thanks for the opportunity to share my wishlist and so great to see the other perspectives from such excellent physicians. Looking forward to the next big trial in this space, maybe with a combination of items from these wishlists. @PERTConsortium @SIRspecialists @WashUMedMIR
In a quick-hitting Q&A with experienced trialists, Drs. Pavan Kavali (@kavaliIR), Mona Ranade (@msran124), and Amir Darki (@darki_amir) offer a look at their personal clinical trial wishlists for pulmonary embolism. evtoday.com/articles/2026-ja…
It was a pleasure to write this for EV Today and share some insights on performing DVT cases early in your career and how to avoid some pitfalls. Thanks for the opportunity! @SIRspecialists @MIRimaging @WashUIR @SIRRFS
Ace your first vascular case with tips from Drs. Pavan K. Kavali (@kavaliIR), Danielle Sutzko (@LoupesLoveMD), and Trisha Roy (@trisharoymd) on preparing effectively, teamwork, avoiding early pitfalls, asking the right questions, & building confidence. evtoday.com/articles/2025-ea…

LMWH vs UFH: @RosovskyRachel with another great talk at the WashU Pulmonary Vascular Symposium highlighting the importance of selecting the right AC for PE patients. @PERTConsortium
Excellent talk by the founder of @PERTConsortium, Dr. Rosenfield to start the day off at the Washington University Pulmonary Vascular Symposium highlighting the importance of a multidisciplinary approach to handle this complex disease process.
Dr. Suresh Vedantham giving the keynote speech at annual @PERTConsortium meeting to kickoff day 2! Proud to call him a mentor, colleague, and a friend. #PERT2025

@kavaliIR presenting the road to why for current PE interventional trials. Mortality rates remain unacceptably high with medical management alone in intermediate-risk PE. Another great talk at #PERT2025 @PERTConsortium

Congrats to Associate Prof. Pavan Kavali, MD (@kavaliIR), who was inducted as a @SIRspecialists fellow at #SIR25NASH. This honor is given to those who've demonstrated excellence in #IRad through research and published works, teaching, leadership, and contributions to the society.
Excellent presentation by @RyanNolan_ #SIR2025 reporting our outcomes of mechanical thrombectomy at BJH compared to anticoagulation alone. Such an outstanding job by an MS2 is so great to see! Congrats, Ryan! Looking forward to the manuscript being published soon.
