Malignant Vascular Neoplasm
Conditions
Brief summary
This study looks at the comfort of interventional and diagnostic imaging residents in performing simulated endovascular procedures after completing training on the Mentice endovascular simulator device. Implementation of a training curriculum with radiology residents interested in interventional radiology will help facilitate hands-on training in a low-risk environment and allow for safer future patient encounters.
Detailed description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To measure trainee comfort performing simulated endovascular procedures after completing training on the Mentice endovascular simulator device. OUTLINE: Participants complete a survey over 10 minutes before and after completing training and using the Mentice endovascular simulator device.
