That could actually create a really big void if we’re not in communities taking care of patients. We’re the “go-to,” we’re necessary in these big systems or big hospitals, but when you get very far from them at all, then you have communities that have absolutely no access to IR.
—Laura Findeiss, MD, FSIR
