Surgery and Interventional Radiology Collaboration at Cincinnati Children’s 

Check out a summary video of a featured Update Course Rewind in which Dr. Dan von Allmen, Dr. John Racadio, Dr. Timothy Lautz, and IR technologist Amanda Wallingford explore how a strong partnership between Surgery and Interventional Radiology (IR) is advancing pediatric patient care at Cincinnati Children’s and beyond. 

This session, originally part of the Update in Pediatric Surgery conference, dives into real-world examples of collaborative innovation, including: 

  • Ultrasound-guided lymph node localization 
  • Cone beam CT technology in a hybrid operating room 
  • Image-guided surgical techniques 
  • Cross-specialty teamwork in the IR-TRSL division 

The discussion showcases how combining surgical expertise with advanced imaging is improving outcomes and setting new standards for minimally invasive pediatric procedures

The Global Cast team has posted the video of the session, featuring insights from Radiology’s Amanda Wallingford and Dr. John Racadio, alongside a pediatric surgeon from Lurie Children’s Hospital. The video highlights the impactful work being done at Cincinnati Children’s in our hybrid OR and Interventional Radiology departments
