MAXIM ITKIN
University of Pennsylvania, USA
Dr. Itkin is a Professor of Radiology and Pediatrics at the University of Pennsylvania and where he is a director of the Center for Lymphatic Imaging and Interventions.
Dr. Itkin is nationally and internationally recognized for his clinical and research expertise in an interventional treatment of the lymphatic disorders. Over the past 15 years, Dr. Itkin has been actively involved in the development of image-guided interventions of the lymphatic system (Thoracic Duct Embolization, liver lymphatic embolization, interstitial lymphatic embolization etc.) as a treatment of lymphatic disorders. Dr. Itkin developed intranodal lymphangiogram, as a substitute pedal lymphangiogram. This method opened new horizons for lymphatic interventions. Dr. Itkin developed contrast enhanced MR lymphangiogram for non-invasive dynamic imaging of the lymphatic anatomy. This technique led to the discovery of pathophysiology and treatment of plastic bronchitis, neonatal chylothorax, congenital lymphodysplasia and protein loosing enteropathy.
Dr. Itkin has lectured extensively nationally and internationally and has 90 peer reviewed publications, reviews and editorials in leading journals. He is a member of many national and international professional societies and in 20011 was inducted into the Society of the Interventional Radiology as a Fellow member as recognition of significant contributions to the field of cardiovascular and interventional radiology.

ROBERT MORGAN
St George’s University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust - London, UK
President of the Cardiovascular and Interventional Society of Europe (CIRSE)
Consultant Vascular and Interventional Radiologist at St George’s University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, President of the Cardiovascular and Interventional Society of Europe (CIRSE).
CIRSE is the largest interventional radiology society worldwide and has over 7,000 members.
While the majority of CIRSE members work in Europe, many hail from as far afield as Japan, New Zealand, Argentina and Canada.
CIRSE is closely involved with the education and training of interventional radiologists, and Dr Morgan was fundamentally involved in the creation of the European Board of Interventional Radiology examination (EBIR).
Since its inception in 2010, the EBIR has become recognised as the premier examination for the completion of training in interventional radiology and is taken by candidates from all over the world.
CIRSE is the largest interventional radiology society worldwide and has over 7,000 members.
While the majority of CIRSE members work in Europe, many hail from as far afield as Japan, New Zealand, Argentina and Canada.

STEPHEN B SOLOMON
Memorial Sloan Ketterin Cancer Center, Chief, Interventional Radiology Service, USA
I am an interventional radiologist who uses x-ray, CT, ultrasound, and MRI to perform procedures less invasively. I am Chief of the Interventional Radiology Service in the Department of Radiology and also Director of Memorial Sloan Kettering’s Center for Image-Guided Interventions (CIGI). At CIGI, we are combining imaging processes and disciplines to develop and apply new image-guided cancer therapies to more effectively treat and cure disease.
Interventional radiology is an increasingly common approach to treating cancer. We use images to see the tumor and the blood vessels that supply it. These images help guide our minimally invasive tools to the site of the tumor so we can use several diagnostic and therapeutic techniques. Patients who have interventional radiological procedures do not need a large incision. They often don’t need general anesthesia. In many cases, these procedures are less risky, and recovery times are shorter than with traditional surgery.
My particular area of interest is treating tumors with thermal ablation. In this technique, we use imaging to guide a needle to a target tumor and then destroy it with either heat (radiofrequency ablation) or extreme cold (cryoablation). I treat kidney cancer, liver cancer, lung cancer, and bone cancer with these procedures. I also perform hepatic artery embolization. For this technique, we inject particles into the main blood vessel that supplies a tumor to cut off its blood supply.
Some of my current research projects involve evaluating a new ablation tool called irreversible electroporation (NanoKnife®). I am also studying using a CT-guided clinical robot to perform procedures more accurately and using PET images to monitor the health of patients who have undergone ablation. In addition, I am looking for ways to boost the immune system’s reaction to cancer cells after tumor ablation. I lead a research lab of dedicated colleagues. We work together to improve image-guided cancer interventions.

TIMO KRINGS
University of Toronto, Canada
Dr. Krings studied medicine in Aachen, Germany and at Harvard Medical School in Boston. After residency training in Neuroradiology in Aachen with Prof. Armin Thron, he completed a neurointerventional fellowship with Professor Pierre Lasjaunias in Paris, France and subsequently joined the Neuroradiology division of the University of Toronto as a diagnostic and interventional Neuroradiologist in 2008. He is currently cross appointed to Radiology and Neurosurgery at UHN and as an interventional Neuroradiologist at the Hospital for Sick Children. He is a Full Professor of Radiology and Surgery, the Chief of Radiology at the Toronto Western Hospital and the Head of the Division of Diagnostic and Interventional Neuroradiology at the University Health Network, Mount Sinai and Women’s College Hospitals. He holds the David Braley and Nancy Gordon Chair in Interventional Neuroradiology at the University of Toronto.
Focusing his research efforts on Imaging and Treatment of Neurovascular Diseases, Dr. Krings has published more than 350 peer reviewed articles, and approximately 30 book chapters and four books on spinal, pediatric and interventional neuroradiology, and neurovascular anatomy.
His current research focusses on the prediction of brain bleeding from brain vascular malformations using a multidiscplinary approach, development of novel methods to treat these life changing events and estimating the relative effectiveness of treatments to determine the impact on Health Care. To this end he is leading a team of Neuro-imagers, Neurointerventionalists, Computational Scientists, Genetist Biologists and Epidemiologists within the Division of Neuroradiology.
Dr. Krings’s leadership in the field of Neuroradiology is bolstered by his distinguished grants and awards, including the Scientific Award of the European Society of Neuroradiology, the Lucien Appel Prize, and the Founders Award in Interventional Neuroradiology of the ESNR. For the development of the Neuroradiology Program in Toronto he won the Anderson Award of the Wightman-Berris Academy and was granted the Edward Lansdown Award for outstanding teaching in the Residency Program of the University of Toronto.
