Reminder: Abdul-Rahim to present on uterine artery embolization

Dr. Osama Abdul-Rahim, interventional radiologist with USA Health and assistant professor of radiology at the USA Health College of Medicine, will present the Med School Café lecture for July. Space is still available for this community lecture.

His lecture, "From the Perspective of Interventional Radiology: Uterine Artery Embolization for Abnormal Uterine Bleeding” will be held Friday, July 12, at the USA Health Strada Patient Care Center. Lunch will be served at 11:30 a.m., and the presentation will begin at noon.

Uterine embolization is a procedure that treats fibroids without surgery. Instead, the doctor, a radiologist, uses special imaging methods to treat the uterine fibroids.

The Med School Café lecture and lunch are provided free of charge, but reservations are required. For more information or to make reservations, contact Kim Partridge at (251) 460-7770 or email kepartridge@health.southalabama.edu.
