This year, I had a pleasure of attending the CIRSE Annual Congress together with my colleague, Arianna Di Marco, and it was truly an amazing experience. We took part in all the events dedicated to students as well as the hands-on device sessions.

One of the most interesting cases I had the opportunity to observe was an AVM of the inferior mesenteric artery. The AVM was successfully treated with NBCA-Lipiodol.

A typical day in the interventional radiology department at Sant’Andrea Hospital in Rome is very busy and dynamic. Work is carried out in two angiography suites that are operational non-stop. CT- guided procedures are also performed in a dedicated session twice per week, along with diagnostic vascular CT. The rest of the activities are dedicated to the care of patients in the outpatient clinics and in hospital setting, with two beds for overnight stay with capacity to host up to six patients per week.

CIRSE and its exceptional academic community have played a crucial role in shaping my professional path. Their continuous support, mentorship, and educational initiatives have guided me towards a deeper commitment to interventional radiology. I am eager to continue this journey, and I hope that by sharing my experience, more students will be inspired to explore IR and become part of this innovative and rapidly evolving field.

Throughout the congress, I actively participated in the Student Programme - Be inspIRed, which featured lectures tailored for undergraduate students and interactive hands-on workshops. The experience not only enriched my knowledge but also allowed me to connect with students and trainees from around the world who share the same passion for interventional radiology.

I also attended , where I presented a scientific poster and was deeply honored to co-host the Student Programme Meet & Greet session. It was deeply fulfilling to see that my efforts as a Student Ambassador had inspired many of my fellow colleagues to attend the congress and engage with CIRSE’s educational opportunities.

Witnessing their enthusiasm confirmed my belief that the future of IR in Romania is bright and promising. 🇷🇴
