A Year in Review
Journal Title: American Journal of Interventional Radiology - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 17
Abstract
It gives me great pleasure to report that the American Journal of Interventional Radiology (IR) had an exceedingly successful inaugural year. We are on track to publish approximately 25 items by the end of November 2018. Accomplishing this in just over a year is a testament to the specialty of IR and the academic nature of the practitioners in this specialty.
