Abstract
The article by McTaggart et al[1][1] in this issue of American Journal of Neuroradiology nicely highlights the use of arterial closure devices by neuroradiologists. Arterial closure devices are now a $500 million per year industry, with such devices being used in some 30%–40% of femoral artery
Highlights
Why did I bring all of this up? I believe that our neuroradiology community will be ideally served by 1 cloud
Imagine a cloud with its own free-of-charge and downloadable software that would permit you to search across the American Society of Neuroradiology (ASNR), Neurographics, American Journal of Neuroradiology (AJNR), and AJNRBlog Websites
Once you combine a scientific article with opinions posted on our blog, with educational material posted in Neurographics, and with political and economic perspectives through the ASNR Website, you will end up with a very powerful tool
Summary
Why is manual compression rapidly losing market share to expensive closure devices? While a physician might be able to find a more productive use of 15 minutes, I cannot imagine that it would be difficult to find a capable health care professional who could apply manual compression for 15 minutes.
