Dr. Khilnani and his collaborators are currently working on a white paper to submit to SIR's Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology (JVIR).
Learn moreResearch Consensus Panels
The Clinical Research and Registries Division supports Research Consensus Panels (RCP) to discuss critical research areas and determine how the priority topic can be further developed. The RCP is a one day meeting, held twice per year, during which time SIR Foundation Leadership selects a current critical topic in IR and the lead investigator coordinates a panel of multi-disciplinary subject matter experts. Each panelist presents on a specific subtopic and discusses future research needs.
