Outstanding work by our very own Dr. Andraska! Blood clots - a menacing problem to us vascular surgeons! @UPMC_Vascular @PittSurgery @VascularSVS
"Can red light therapy help prevent blood clot?"
This animal study suggest that it might be possible!
Thank you @NeuroscienceNew for highlighting this exciting research from our journal.

@UPMC_Vascular resident Yash Pandya @YashPan62912142 at @VESurgery 2025 showing our use of aggressive radiation reduction in complex #FBEVAR. 4V cases routinely <1Gy on a 2017 @GEHealthCare Discovery seriously reduces dose to pt and team. Pics: TAMBE 100kg pt, Treo PMEG 80kg pt.
Use of digital zoom, fusion, minimizing angle/mag/DSA learned from @GustavoOderich and others. Our experience w complex FBEVAR is only 2.5y and 50+ cases - so even less experienced operators can achieve this! Incorporating strategies to reduce dose should be a universal goal.

Thanks @VEITHsymposium for allowing us to showcase the great work being done here at @HviUpmc and in particular our efforts to build a complex aortic/PMEG program with strong focus on accountability, quality, and consistency! #aortaed
We had a great visit today with @VEITHsymposium - great discussion on a number of pertinent vascular topics.

The 21st annual Pittsburgh Vascular Symposium! Register here: upmcphysicianresources.com/e…
Excited to publish our results from the #ai algorithms underlying @aneurisk_inc technology. Developed on 381 #AAA patients using clinical, anatomic, and novel biomechanical/wall stress metrics with @DavidVorp @timechg from @PittBioE and @UPMC_Vascular

and predicting wall stress using #ai methods:

I’m thrilled that @VascularOnline is highlighting our ongoing work through @aneurisk_inc. Predicting aortic aneurysm growth and rupture is challenging but the clear next step in improving our understanding and treatment @timechg @DavidVorp vascularspecialistonline.com…
