Patient access to interventional radiology services remains highly variable worldwide, reflecting global differences in training opportunities and infrastructure. Drawing on responses from more than 1,260 interventional radiologists worldwide, Dr. Justin Guan and Dr. Constantinos Sofocleous unpack the findings of a large international survey, highlighting where IR is advancing, where it remains fragmented, and what the data suggest about the future direction of the specialty.---SYNPOSISKey points of the episode involve the collaborative efforts put into this survey, how data was collected, and major findings from the respondents. These findings involve challenges with IR training, the significance of public awareness, and the need for standardized training programs. The discussion also covers the efforts required to promote IR globally, especially at global summits, and the potential steps to address these findings. Finally, the episode highlights the importance of developing region-specific programs and the ongoing efforts to elevate IR practices worldwide.---TIMESTAMPS---RESOURCESResults of a Global Survey on the State of Interventional Radiology 2024: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39793699/
