Join Nikki Keefe, an interventional radiologist, as we delve into the complexities of uterine fibroids and the disparities in treatment access. Despite uterine fibroids affecting up to 70 percent of women and causing severe symptoms like heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, and infertility, many, especially Hispanic and rural patients, are unaware of uterine artery embolization (UAE), a minimally invasive and effective treatment option. Nikki will discuss the various treatment options, the benefits of UAE, and the significant barriers to awareness and access, highlighting the urgent need for improved education and health care equity.

Nikki Keefe is an interventional radiologist.

She discusses the KevinMD article, co-authored by Matt Patetta, MD, Maureen Kohi, MD, Gloria Salazar, MD, Kira Griffith, and Josh Walker, “Overcoming disparity in access to uterine artery embolization.”

Our presenting sponsor is Nuance, a Microsoft company.
