EINPresswire/ -- This past weekend, IR Centers^®, the nation’s leading outpatient Interventional Radiology (IR) platform, partnered with the STREAM Meeting to host an immersive educational event for IR residents from across the United States. The event was held at the Archer Hotel in Tysons Corner, Virginia, and brought together trainees, faculty, and thought leaders for a powerful, high-impact experience focused on the real-world transition from training to practice.

The program featured live-streamed embolization cases from affiliated IR Centers^® across the country, complemented by panel discussions on medical malpractice risk, contract negotiation, and physician career development—topics often underrepresented in traditional IR residency training. Sessions were led by IR Centers^® physicians, academic leaders, and legal experts, providing attendees with actionable knowledge on how to succeed in the modern practice landscape.

“Now in its eighth year, the STREAM Meeting continues to deliver a dynamic and highly interactive format that prioritizes real-world readiness,” said Dr. Ari Isaacson, Course Director for the STREAM Meeting and nationally recognized leader in embolotherapy.

“We’re committed to educating the next generation of IR leaders—not just in procedural technique, but in the business, communication, and decision-making skills that will define their careers. It’s a unique learning environment that you simply don’t get from traditional lectures or conferences.”

The meeting included curated sessions on:

Live cases in prostatic artery embolization, genicular artery embolization, and hemorrhoidal embolization

Contract literacy and RVU-based compensation frameworks

Malpractice protection and insurance strategies for new attendings

Fellowship-to-attending transition planning

Networking with clinical leaders in outpatient IR

“As a physician-led platform, we believe in preparing the next generation not just to perform procedures—but to lead practices, negotiate smartly, and build lasting careers,” said Dr. Alex Pavidapha, Chief Medical Officer of IR Centers^®.

“The STREAM Meeting reflects the core of our mission: collaboration, education, and clinical excellence. The energy this weekend was incredible, and we look forward to continuing to invest in the future of our specialty.”

This collaborative effort between IR Centers^® and the STREAM Meeting underscores both organizations’ dedication to education, innovation, and the long-term success of IR physicians. Additional programming and regional events are planned for 2026.
