    The President of the United States is calling for UV light therapy for COVID (External or endoluminal?!?!). Also injecting or ingesting disinfectants.....I just can’t believe that after almost 900k cases and 50k deaths in 60 days...this is our elected leader :(

    Live @MountSinaiIR up to 15 cases with the new 16fr Computer Assisted Vacuum Thrombectomy system (CAVT) for Acute PE. Very deliverable and shorter procedure times compared to LBAT. Looking forward to STORM-PE to get the level one evidence. @PERTConsortium
