Opportunities for interventional radiology (IR) education and exposure remain limited at medical institutions without a local IR presence, thereby excluding a medical student population with potential to pursue careers in IR or become referring providers to IR.

Our early results indicate that a Webinar-based IR lecture series can serve as an effective method for educating future physicians about the field of IR and when to consult IR for patient management.
