UW Department of Radiology’s J. Louis Hinshaw, MD joined UW Department of Urology’s Jason Abel, MD and podcast host Ruchika Talwar, MD for the BackTable tumor board episode “Multidisciplinary Approaches to Renal Cancer Care.” Drs. Hinshaw and Abel work closely together in clinical and research realms through the interdisciplinary kidney cancer program, bringing together the disciplines of radiology and urology to best serve patients.
In the episode, Dr. Hinshaw highlighted the over two decades-long partnership between the radiology and urology departments at the UW School of Medicine and Public Health, emphasizing that collaborative care leads to better patient outcomes. He shared technical considerations behind treatment options like cryoablation and microablation, and contributing factors that can make a patient a better candidate for option one over the other.
