  • Ep. 91 Winding Down Neuwave: Impact on Interventional Radiology with Dr. Joshua Kuban

    Ep. 91 Winding Down Neuwave: Impact on Interventional Radiology with Dr. Joshua Kuban
    May 30 2025
    It’s official — NeuWave is exiting the market. In this episode, Dr. Christopher Beck hosts a conversation with Dr. Josh Kuban, an interventional radiologist at MD Anderson Cancer Center, to discuss the impact that NeuWave's microwave tumor ablation technology has had on the field of interventional oncology and the recent announcement of its discontinuation, scheduled for March 2026. --- This podcast is supported by: Medtronic Emprint https://www.medtronic.com/emprint --- SYNPOSIS Dr. Kuban reflects on NeuWave’s innovative beginnings in microwave ablation, which expanded to include four distinct systems and advanced ablation confirmation software. At its peak, the company held over 50% of the microwave ablation market and played a pivotal role in reshaping interventional radiology's view of the safety and effectiveness of this treatment approach. He also shares how NeuWave’s departure will affect his practice and outlines the steps he’s taking to prepare his team for the transition to alternative devices. The discussion broadens to the current landscape of microwave ablation, spotlighting emerging players in ablation confirmation software and robotic technologies. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction2:14 - Overview of Neuwave’s Rise7:01 - Decision to Discontinue 14:56 - Navigating the Switch Different Technologies 21:54 - Buyback Program24:33 - Forecasting New Developments --- RESOURCES BackTable IND Ep. 23- Approach the Problem with Vision: Part I of the Neuwave Story : https://www.backtable.com/shows/industry/podcasts/23/approach-the-problem-with-vision-part-i-of-the-neuwave-story BackTable IND Ep. 24- Trials and Tribulations: Part II of the Neuwave Story: https://www.backtable.com/shows/industry/podcasts/24/trials-tribulations-part-ii-of-the-neuwave-story BackTable IND Ep. 25- Next Level Stuff, the Exit: Part III of the Neuwave Story:https://www.backtable.com/shows/industry/podcasts/25/next-level-stuff-the-exit-part-iii-of-the-neuwave-story Johnson & Johnson Press Release Regarding Discontinuation of NeuWave:https://www.medline.com/media/assets/pdf/vendor-list/Disco_notice.pdfMedTronic Emprint Ablation: https://www.medtronic.com/covidien/en-gb/products/ablation-systems/emprint-ablation-system.html Varian MicroThermX Ablation: https://www.varian.com/products/interventional-oncology/microthermx Safety and Effectiveness of Microwave Ablation of Liver Tumors: Initial Real-World Results from the Multinational NeuWave Observational Liver Ablation (NOLA) Registry (Odisio, 2025):https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39848330/

  • Ep. 90 Physician-Patient Trust in Modern Medicine

    Ep. 90 Physician-Patient Trust in Modern Medicine
    Apr 8 2025
    How did your last patient-physician interaction go? Did you wish that the other person had understood your perspective better? In this episode of Backtable Industry, hosts Dr. Ruchika Talwar and Anish Parikh discuss the complexities of medicine, focusing on the importance of communication between doctors and patients. --- SYNPOSIS The episode begins with an exploration of how medical and surgical training influence physician behaviors and the impact of new economic pressures on modern physicians, including the increasing need to see more patients in less time. The conversation also delves into the national sentiment of declining trust towards doctors, highlighting the impacts of disjointed care and the rise of patients turning to the internet for medical advice. The hosts emphasize the need for transparency, shared decision-making, and the benefits of using reliable information sources. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction 04:42 - Declining Trust in Physicians 11:21 - The Doctor-Patient Relationship 15:09 - Taking Charge of Your Health 25:00 - The Role of Patient Advocacy and Education 28:55 - Shared Decision-Making 38:39 - Adapting to Better Informed Patients --- RESOURCES Wall St Journal Article- “Why We Don’t Trust Doctors Like We Used To”: https://www.wsj.com/health/wellness/why-we-dont-trust-doctors-like-we-used-to-79784b56?mod=googlenewsfeed&st=xP8KUR “Outlive” by Dr. Peter Attia: https://peterattiamd.com/outlive/

  • Ep. 89 Radiology Private Equity Update with Dr. Ben White

    Ep. 89 Radiology Private Equity Update with Dr. Ben White
    Mar 18 2025
    Teleradiology, artificial intelligence, and private equity takeovers—how do we navigate these rapid changes in the radiology landscape? In this episode, our co-hosts Dr. Ally Baheti and Dr. Mike Barraza bring Dr. Ben White back to the show to provide an update on the current radiology job market and share his insights on reclaiming value for the profession. Dr. White begins by reflecting on the changes since his last appearance with us in 2022, focusing primarily on the ongoing shortage of radiologists, which has lasted longer than anticipated during the pandemic, and the explosion of teleradiology. --- SYNPOSIS Today’s radiologists are more mobile than ever, with remote work options and the appeal of sensationalized job postings. Dr. White also discusses the instability of more established practices, particularly when legacy partners depart after fulfilling their contractual obligations. In response, many practices are refinancing their debt, which has led to a decrease in practice acquisitions. Dr. White believes that large-scale healthcare operations often result in increased inefficiency and reduced agility. The downstream effects include the commoditization of teleradiologists, concerns about decreased quality of reads, a limited scope of practice for procedures, reduced access to imaging for smaller hospitals, longer wait times, and more unstable locum staffing. The doctors also speculate about the future division of radiology into different service tiers, depending on the level of access each hospital has to radiologists. Finally, Dr. White highlights his Independent Radiology job board, which lists open positions from physician-owned practices. His goal in creating the website is to address the pain points of other job advertisement sites, where misleading postings are common. He wants radiologists to consider joining a team of physicians, rather than simply accepting a job. His advice to all radiologists is to expect uncertainty in the job market and to remain flexible. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Current Radiology Job Market 07:43 - Updates on Private Equity in Radiology 16:26 - Role of Artificial Intelligence 22:46 - Growing Imaging Volume and Efficiency 26:51 - Challenges in Radiology Staffing 36:49 - Independent Radiology Job Board 50:07 - Future of Radiology and Final Thoughts --- RESOURCES BackTable VI Ep. 277- Private Equity and the Radiology Job Environment with Dr. Ben White: https://www.backtable.com/shows/vi/podcasts/277/private-equity-the-radiology-job-environment Independent Radiology Job Board: https://www.independentradiology.com/
