Abstract:
The Society of Interventional Radiology Foundation commissioned a Research Consensus Panel to establish a research agenda on "Obesity Therapeutics" in interventional radiology (IR). The meeting convened a multidisciplinary group of physicians and scientists with expertise in obesity therapeutics. The meeting was intended to review current evidence on obesity therapies, familiarize attendees with the regulatory evaluation process, and identify research deficiencies in IR bariatric interventions, with the goal of prioritizing future high-quality research that would move the field forward. The panelists agreed that a weight loss of >8%-10% from baseline at 6-12 months is a desirable therapeutic endpoint for future IR weight loss therapies. The final consensus on the highest priority research was to design a blinded randomized controlled trial of IR weight loss interventions versus sham control arms, with patients receiving behavioral therapy.

Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Ventilation Perfusion Scans are two radiological investigations that offer detailed diagnostic images of the body, particularly lung structures.
MRI
MRI uses magnetic fields and radiofrequency signals to distinguish between normal and abnormal tissues. This technology provides a more detailed diagnostic image than CT scans, enabling it to characterize pulmonary nodules, stage bronchogenic carcinoma, and evaluate inflammatory activity in...

Definition and Purpose
An X-ray, or radiograph, is a non-invasive method that uses ionizing radiation to take images of internal structures. It is mainly used in cardiac imaging to examine the heart, lungs, and major blood vessels, aiming to identify abnormalities in the heart's size, shape, and position, such as heart failure, congenital defects, and vascular...
