"Over time, that nerve regenerates. And that regenerated nerve is new, and wasn't there for the surgery, or wasn't there for the trauma. And so this is an ability to percutaneously—or through the skin with a needle—replace your damaged nerve."—J. David Prologo, MD, FSIR, on the potential of cryoneurolysisIn this episode, host Warren Krackov, MD, FSIR, speaks with J. David Prologo, MD, FSIR, about the efficacy and potential of cryoneurolysis in pain management, and Dr. Prologo's patient, Bo Thordarson, MD, about how this treatment helped resolve her long-term pain from a damaged nerve.  Related resourcesPlanning to attend the SIR 2025 Annual Scientific Meeting?

In this episode of the BackTable MSK Podcast, Dr. Dana Dunleavy interviews Dr. David Prologo about his perspective on current advancements in MSK interventions, including steerable spine needles, thermocouples for radiofrequency ablation, and the growing importance of advocacy and longitudinal follow up for patients with chronic pain. Dr. Prologo is an interventional radiologist at Emory University. Dr. Prologo starts by describing the evolution of interventional radiology's role in MSK interventions. He explains that establishing solid referral networks is crucial to building this service line, and he gives examples of how new interventionalists can highlight their skills to others. Then, he describes a new steerable needle that allows operators to safely enter the vertebral body with a transpedicular approach and subsequently navigate directly to the location of interest. This device is especially useful when lesions are located in tricky areas where the trajectory of a straight needle would have difficulty reaching. He also discusses different devices for bone tumor ablation and his preferred methods for targeting lesions that are located at varying locations in the spine. For lesions below T5, he uses fluoroscopy for better visualization of the axial plane. For lumbar lesions, he emphasizes the importance of correlating and cross-checking vertebral levels with pre-procedural MRI. Dr. Prologo also discusses lessons learned from his extensive experience in spine interventions, especially from prior complications. He explains how thermocouple monitoring can give real time feedback on internal temperature during radiofrequency ablation, the necessity of understanding the ablation zone, and the importance of longitudinal follow up. He cites specific cases of patients struggling with chronic pain and how he advocated for each case. --- CHECK OUT OUR SPONSOR Merit Spine https://www.merit.com/merit-spine/ --- SHOW NOTES 00:00 - Introduction 02:09 - Dr. Prologo's Career and Leadership Roles 09:52 - Interventional Radiology's Role in MSK Interventions 13:37 - A Primer for Steerable Vertebral Needles 21:40 - Increasing Standardization and Accessibility of Bone Tumor Ablation 26:37 - Advanced Pain Management in Interventional Radiology' Book 30:24 - Thermocouples in Radiofrequency Ablation 35:45 - Prior Complications and Importance of Longitudinal Care 44:24 - SIR EDGE 2024 52:31 - Accessing Targets for Basivertebral Nerve Ablation 1:01:17 - The Role of Advocacy in Patient Care --- RESOURCES Osseoflex Steerable Needle: https://www.merit.com/product/osseoflex-sn-steerable-needle/ STAR Tumor Ablation System: https://www.merit.com/product/star-tumor-ablation-system/ Osteocool OsteoCool Radiofrequency Ablation System: https://www.medtronic.com/us-en/healthcare-professionals/products/spinal-orthopaedic/tumor-management/osteocool-ablation-system-rf.html OptaBlate Bone Tumor Ablation System: https://providers.strykerivs.com/products/optablate ‘Advanced Pain Management in Interventional Radiology' by J.

In this BackTable MSK episode, host Dr. Jacob Fleming interviews Dr. Alan Sag about techniques and advancements in bone cryoablation. Dr. Sag is an interventional radiologist at Duke University Medical Center. To start, Dr. Sag discusses his current practice and collaboration with orthopedic surgeons. He highlights IlluminOss, a new photodynamic bone stabilization system that uses similar concepts to endovascular balloons. Then, the doctors move onto discussing cryoablation, which was recently cleared by the FDA for use in pain palliation in bone metastases. Dr. Sag describes the procedural steps of cryoablation, pneumodissection with carbon dioxide, when to use polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) augmentation, the value of same session biopsy, and education for referrers and patients. Cryoneurolysis and intrathecal pain pumps are also discussed, as they can offer additional pain relief for patients and reduce opioid dependence. --- CHECK OUT OUR SPONSOR Stryker Interventional Spine https://www.strykerivs.com --- SHOW NOTES 00:00 - Introduction 03:20 - Collaboration with Orthopedic Surgery 08:57 - FDA Clearance for Cryoablation 14:47 - Cement Augmentation after Cryoablation 19:22 - Approach to the Cryoablation Procedure 26:57 - The Value of Same Session Biopsy 29:11 - Coordinating Cross-Specialty Oncologic Care 33:30 - Side Effects of Cryoablation 38:03 - Cryoneurolysis for Pain Reduction 45:40 - Skin Safety During Cryoablation 50:58 - Preferred Imaging Modalities 57:28 - Neuromodulation with Intrathecal Pain Pumps --- RESOURCES Symposium on Clinical Interventional Oncology (CIO): https://www.hmpglobalevents.com/cio BackTable VI Ep. 221- Building a Musculoskeletal Oncology Service Line with Dr. Alan Sag: https://www.backtable.com/shows/vi/podcasts/221/building-a-musculoskeletal-interventional-oncology-service IlluminOss Photodynamic Bone Stabilization System: https://www.illuminoss.com/eu BackTable VI Ep. 401- The MOTION Study: Cryoablation for Painful Bony Metastases with Dr. Jack Jennings: https://www.backtable.com/shows/vi/podcasts/401/the-motion-study-cryoablation-for-painful-bone-metastases BackTable VI Ep. 284- Ortho/IR Collaboration in Private Practice with Dr. Tony Brown & Dr. Daniel Lerman: https://www.backtable.com/shows/vi/podcasts/284/ortho-ir-collaboration-in-private-practice BackTable MSK Ep. 25- Advanced Minimally Invasive Pain Interventions with Dr. David Prologo: https://www.backtable.com/shows/msk/podcasts/25/advanced-minimally-invasive-pain-interventions Pneumodissection for Skin Protection in Image-Guided Cryoablation of Superficial Musculoskeletal Tumors: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5499669/ BackTable MSK 40- Innovating Pain Management: The Role of Spinal Cord Stimulators in Outpatient Care with Dr. Doug Beall https://www.backtable.com/shows/msk/podcasts/40/innovating-pain-management-the-role-of-spinal-cord-stimulators-in-outpatient-care

This episode originally aired back in August 2022, but as you'll soon hear, it's worth a re-listen! I had the opportunity to interview Dr. David Prologo. Dr. Prologo brings a unique perspective as an interventional radiologist, obesity medicine specialist, and author of the book "The Catching Point Transformation." In our interview, he explained that the main reason diets fail is because they go against our body's natural survival mechanisms. When we abruptly cut calories or ramp up exercise, our bodies react by slowing metabolism, increasing hunger signals, and doing whatever it takes to hold on to fat stores.  Instead, Dr. Prologo advocates for taking time upfront to change your body composition and improve your exercise capacity. This "investment period" allows your body to metabolically adapt so that weight loss efforts don't feel like constant deprivation. He uses the analogy of a flower - watering it more won't make it bloom faster. You first need to give it sunlight and time to grow stronger roots.  I was fascinated to learn from Dr. Prologo that changes to the body can actually cause beneficial changes in the brain, improving motivation and healthy behaviors. He calls this "retrograde neuroplasticity." Things like getting better sleep, building muscle, and boosting nutrition provide positive feedback loops. Over time, your preferences shift so that healthy choices become rewarding and sustainable. If you've struggled to lose weight and keep it off, I highly recommend listening to this interview. Dr. Prologo provides an empowering message - with the right strategy centered on your unique starting point, you absolutely can transform your body composition for good.  You can connect with David in the following ways: Website - https://www.drprologo.com/Instagram - @jdprologoFacebook - @jdprologoTwitter - @jdprlogoBook – The Catching Point Transformation: A Twelve-Week Weight Loss Strategy Based in Reality Want more over 50 health and wellness goodness?

Individuals with Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) describe the pain caused by artery blockages restricting blood flow to their feet as having a tourniquet wrapped tightly around their thigh and calf causing their muscles, tissues, and nerves below to scream for much needed oxygen and other nutrients. Timing is critical to diagnose and treat PAD whether with medication, lifestyle modifications, and/or interventional/surgical approaches because once tissue and nerves are damaged due to lack of blood flow,pain may be permanent. Few options are available to bring relief for that neuropathy pain and chiropractic and general wellness practices across the country are preying upon these individuals with band-aid options which come at a high price. But some physicians are working on clinical solutions that are much more effective and durable for these patients who have had their blood flow restored and still can't get relief from PAD, diabetic neuropathy, or even phantom pain following amputation. Southern Vascular & Pain Management Center Interventional Radiologists Dr. Stephen Leschak and Dr. Thomas Hodgkiss join Emory University Vice Chair for imaging intervention and division director for interventional radiology Dr. David Prologo in talking about innovative approaches to managing pain and questions to ask your doctor to know if they're right for you.

From the vault this week as I get a lot of requests for diet/weightloss advice and I like the advice Dr Prologo gives.This week I had the pleasure of talking to Dr David Prologo.He's a is a dual board-certified interventional radiologist and obesity medicine specialist. Dr. Prologo has spent more than twenty years specifically analyzing the phenomenon of diet attrition—why do diets always fail? More importantly, when they do fail, why do we blame the patients for that failure?Just to give you some idea as to his credentials;Dr Prologo has been recognized nationally and internationally for his pioneering work with human weight loss – including features on The Today Show, in the Washington Post, on Capitol Hill, in numerous in peer-reviewed journal publications, countless web based invited expert articles, and much more . We had a tremendous chat about weightloss, why people fail. How the diet and fitness industry is more than happy for people to fail and, more importantly, how to REALLY succeed at losing weight (though I think the lessons in his book go well beyond that and can be transferred to many other areas of change).He provided some really interesting insights into weightloss journeys and how to make it stick permanently.I promise you this is a must listen if you're considering trying to lose a bit of weight, have tried before and it didn't stick or are a fitness/diet professional.Of course you can find Dr Prologo in all the usual spaces;His website where you can order a copy of his amazing bookFacebook where you can catch all the latest updates and see what he's up to.In the news this week This article in a Dutch newspaper  talking about how microplastics can now be found in 90% (!!!) of all make-up/shower products and how they find their way into nature through our sewage system. (Here's the Times article listing the same study)Here is an article that gives you some alternatives if you're interested.This also ties in nicely with next week's interview about household chemicals and how you can improve your child's, and your own, health by getting rid of some things around the house you really don't need or want. Remember to follow us on Instagram and Facebook for the competitions, wisdom and cute videos.

We talk with interventional radiologist Dr. David Prologo about minimally invasive pain interventions, multidisciplinary pain management, and how he built a successful pain practice. --- CHECK OUT OUR SPONSOR RADPAD® Radiation Protection https://www.radpad.com/ --- EARN CME Reflect on how this Podcast applies to your day-to-day and earn free AMA PRA Category 1 CMEs: https://earnc.me/GzA4Iu --- SHOW NOTES In this episode, host Dr. Michael Barraza interviews Dr. David Prologo, director of interventional radiology at Emory about minimally invasive pain interventions, multidisciplinary pain management, and how he created a booming practice that is well known by patients and providers nationally. Dr. Prologo begins by discussing his training in obesity medicine and how his interests in pain management developed. He discusses his book, The Catching Point, which explores weight loss culture and the fault of society and medical providers in placing the blame on patients and the new options available in IR for weight loss. He says his interest in pain management was similar to his interest in obesity medicine. He was curious about how he could use his tools and skills as an IR to treat obesity and pain with minimally invasive procedures. Next, they discuss how IR fits into the multidisciplinary team that plays a role in pain management. He explains that the combination of technology and an IRs position in the hospital makes them ideal for the job. He says a key is to maintain relationships with all other specialties by focusing initially on procedures that other specialties don't perform, in order to build rapport. He also notes that the procedures he performs result in rapid pain reduction and greatly decrease length of stay which is a huge incentive for hospitals and other specialties to seek out IR and make referrals. Finally, the two discuss the types of patients Dr. Prologo treats, and the procedures he does. He divides patient population into neoplastic versus non neoplastic pain, and spine versus non spine pain. He sees 90% of patients in clinic for procedure planning. Dr. Prologo emphasizes the importance of advocating for patients and continuing to see them even if they do not need an IR procedure. He discusses his 8, 3, 3, 3 method for percutaneous cryoneurolysis and discusses the various outcomes he is able to achieve in pain reduction. Dr. Prologo minimizes non responders by doing test blocks, understanding central desensitization, and selecting patients for procedures appropriately. --- RESOURCES Interventional Cryoneurolysis: An Illustrative Approach: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33308581/ Focused Cryo: https://gra.org/company/213/Focused_Cryo.html Nantes criteria for pudendal neuralgia: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17828787/ The Catching Point https://www.catchingpoint.com David Prologo Website: https://www.drprologo.com/about

Dr. David Prologo (MD, FSIR, ABOM-D) is a dual board-certified interventional radiologist and obesity medicine specialist, who has spent his career advocating for passionate patient care. He advocates for love, empathy, and understanding – specifically for those patients struggling to lose weight or experiencing pain.Dr. Prologo is the author of The Catching Point Transformation which is available everywhere and in almost every language and format. The Catching Point Transformation is founded on humanizing those who struggle with weight loss and offering a new way.Dr. Prologo's work further led to the identification of the catching point—a clear pivot point beyond which calorie restriction and exercise are easier for patients. This debut narrative non-fiction focuses on the following main points:• Obese and overweight patients have a host of variables that block them from losing weight on their own. These cannot be overcome with "willpower." (metabolic changes, hunger hormones, adiposopathy, gut microbiota, and exercise capacities).• Every static diet schedule ignores these variables and drives the overweight/obese person straight into a wall every time. This is why the failure rate with these programs is so high.• The Catching Point Transformation pays direct attention to managing these blocks, shifts right around them, and delivers the patient a NEW OUTCOME.• How? By inducing internal body restructuring with changes harnessed during recovery. Literally changing the person into another person who doesn't struggle with clean living. Recovery cannot be written into a static program and to date has been ignored. It requires an understanding of biofeedback variables, individuality, fluidity, supplementation, and adding in diet components.• The final chapters talk about medical interventions that are available in 2021/2022.Beyond his new book, Dr. Prologo's research has established percutaneous cryo-neurolysis (freezing of nerves with imaging guidance) as a novel treatment for cancer patients with pain, a new option to block hunger for those wishing to diet, in the management of phantom limb pain for injured veterans, and even for treatment of premature ejaculation in men (further proving that mind over matter is nonsense).• The hunger nerve is freezing. This blocks hunger and allows people to diet. It also underpins and supports the claim that "mind over matter is bulls$%#." Dr. Prologo was the first on the planet to do this procedure (first revealed on the Megyn Kelly Show). Dr. Prologo has generated additional research and follow-up regarding this procedure, which has not been released to Media yet, but we can discuss it.More about Dr. Prologo• Chair of the SIR Pain Management Council, Consultant to Boston Scientific and Varian [and others], invited speaker and writer around the world, invited editor to prestigious journals on the topic of freezing and killing cancer.• Congress has asked him to debrief the United States on multiple occasions regarding these techniques as alternative opioids.• Dr. Prologo was the first boots on the ground in East Africa to develop and bring interventional radiology to hundreds of millions of people otherwise dying from things solved here as an annoyance.• Real amateur MMA career and jiujitsu with muay thai training experience. (trained at Strongstyle [same gym as Stipe Miocic)• Has been recognized nationally and internationally for his work, including features on The Today Show, in the Washington Post, on Capitol Hill, numerous peer-reviewed journal publications, countless web-based invited expert articles, and much more.• Fat-shaming: a proclamation that fat-shaming is the last accepted prejudice.Website/Social linkswww.drprologo.com

If so, let's get your body into weight loss mode by clicking on the link below: https://atlantaweightlossdoctor.com/makeover/ Now enjoy today's show!  Your weight loss journey starts today with Dr. J. David Prologo, author of The Catching Point. Dr. Prologo is the first dual certified interventional radiologist and obesity medicine physician in the world. He pioneered the use of nerve freezing to block hunger in patients struggling to lose weight. Diet culture often promises quick results without considering the current condition of the patient, whose body could become overwhelmed by sudden calorie restriction. The catching point is where weight loss truly begins. Regardless of what diet you start, your success is dictated by your ability to be consistent, which is why it is necessary to prime the body in order to successfully adhere to any diet. Without priming the body for success,  it is impossible to lose weight because your body mechanically enters survival mode. The first phase of weight loss isn't weight loss at all but is the conditioning of your body to that catching point when your body adapts to the new nutritional conditions and routines. Dr. Prologo is helping patients who are struggling with lifelong obesity, get to that critical point so they can actually yield results from their chosen diet.    KEY TAKEAWAYS [1:30] Evolving interventional radiology by freezing nerves to manage pain and block hunger  [4:45] Freezing the trunk of the vagus nerve subsequently slows the emptying of the stomach [6:00] You cannot overcome the bodies survival instinct of hunger when restricting calories  [11:45] It may take 6 months before your body adapts and you can begin losing weight [19:22] Calorie restrictions trigger a ghrelin dump & then nerves fire from your empty stomach  [21:10] Blocking the blood vessels that produce ghrelin in dieting patients  [23:00] The medical literature proves that adherence is more important than the diet you choose [28:00] In anything you pursue there is always a critical point when it becomes easy   HOW TO CONNECT WITH OUR GUEST Website:https://www.drprologo.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jdprologo/ Twitter:https://twitter.com/jdprologo The Catching Point: https://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1642939226   MEMORABLE QUOTES “If you take the time to get to the catching point first, your chances have now gone way up to be successful when you start some new program.” [17:55]   Visit our store below: https://reviveatlmd.mindsharecommerce.com/ Code: First10 for 10% off Rejuvenate your Metabolism and Weight Loss Bundle Weight Loss Support Packets   Adrenal Complex™ 120 capsules Metal-x-Synergy 90 Vegetarian capsules These packets are designed to assist the body in using fat for fuel and to help support healthy insulin, cortisol, and energy metabolism.

Dr. Prologo is a graduate of The Ohio State University School of Medicine. He has spent the majority of his career researching new solutions for pain and weight loss. He is most well-known for pioneering a procedure to block hunger, allowing people to reach a critical point beyond which dieting was no longer a struggle – work that allowed him to define the critically acclaimed “Catching Point” beyond which diet and exercise are easier for those trying to lose weight.  The Catching Point itself, and the strategy to get there are outlined in his book: The Catching Point Transformation. In today's podcast, we unpack all things weight loss and dietary adherence. This is a nice back and forth conversation as opposed to a straight up interview so hopefully you enjoy it.  Why ‘Mind Over Matter' Is Bulls#$% for a weight loss goal  Why dietary adherence is 95% of your weight loss progress Understanding the hormones that make dietary adherence so much harder  The metabolic reasons why hunger and low energy in a calorie restricted plan leads you to falling off track How to boost your metabolism with exercise and why this can potentially increase cravings for healthier food His unpopular opinion on using exercise BEFORE looking at nutrition (and the reasons why)  Focusing on recovery with food vs calorie counting How to stay on track during the days in between workouts (a diet danger zone for people)    Website link: www.drprologo.com

In this episode, we discussed the research, principles, and strategies outlined in his book, The Catching Point Transformation: A Twelve-Week Weight Loss Strategy Based in Reality. Over to Dr. Prologo. Stu (01:15) Hey guys, this is Stu from 180 Nutrition and I am delighted to welcome Dr. David Prologo to the podcast. Dr. Prologo, how are you? Dr. Prologo (01:23) Hello. Hi. I'm doing very well. Thank you for having me, Stuart. Stu (01:26) And thank you so much for your time. I know you must be a busy man, and I've got a whole heap of questions that I'd love to dig in and ask you this morning. But before I do that, I would love it, for all of our listeners that may not be familiar with you or your work, if you could just tell us a little bit more about yourself, please. Dr. Prologo (01:44) Sure. I'm a dual board certified physician doctor. What that means is, I have a specialty in obesity medicine and I have a specialty in something else called interventional radiology. Basically, what that means is we use image guidance like CAT scans and MRIs and so on, to guide needles into the body.

About Dr. David Prologo: Dr. David Prologo is a dual board-certified interventional radiologist and obesity medicine specialist. Dr. Prologo has spent more than twenty years specifically analyzing the phenomenon of diet attrition—why do diets always fail? More importantly, when they do fail, why do we blame the patients for that failure? That journey led Dr. Prologo to perform first in human advanced interventional procedures to manage obesity, diabetes, and other metabolic conditions. It further led to the identification of the catching point—a clear pivot point beyond which calorie restriction and exercise are easier for patients. He has served on numerous national and international committees, as an invited editor for multiple peer-reviewed journals, a council member for the true health initiative, and has published many scientific papers. Dr. Prologo continues to advocate for those who are in pain or struggle with weight loss – particularly driving an agenda of acceptance, inclusion, and love.  What We Discuss In This Episode: Prologo talks about his exciting book, The Catching Point Transformation. Dr. Prologo's narrative non-fiction book explains why weight loss efforts so often fail, and how to change that. Why is it that so many people fail when attempting to lose weight on their own? What can we do differently so that we can be successful? How can we change the composition of our body so that our bodies are in the “right state” to be more successful with weight loss? What is the hunger nerve freezing procedure? Explain why do feel you're an advocate for people?

What's the difference between lean healthy fit people and those who seem to constantly struggle with weight issues? Why is it that so many of us have such a hard time of not necessarily losing weight, but of maintaining a lean healthy body? Is it a lack of willpower or motivation – maybe these folks lack the grit and the determination necessary for long term changes. Or maybe it's lack of knowledge – if they just understood what foods to eat and what exercises to do that would lead them to the promised land of having a lean fit healthy body. Or maybe the problem is that the vast majority of nutrition and fitness advise is coming from people who are already lean fit and healthy. And what works to keep them lean and fit might be terrible advice for someone who has 30,40,50 or more pounds to lose – because they are in a different starting place.  Maybe it's time to reexamine why diets fail, and more importantly, when they do fail, why do we blame the dieter for that failure? My guest today is Dr. David Prologo. David is a dual board-certified interventional radiologist and obesity medicine specialist, and the author of the book titled The Catching Point Transformation: A Twelve-Week Weight Loss Strategy Based in Reality. He has spent more than twenty years specifically analyzing the phenomenon of diet attrition and why diets fail. Join us this week as David explains exactly how those of us who struggle with sustainable weight loss can meet themselves where they are and learn how to prepare themselves for a successful journey to obtaining – and maintaining – a lifelong lean, fit, and healthy body. You can connect with David in the following ways:Website - https://www.drprologo.com/Instagram - @jdprologoFacebook - @jdprologoTwitter - @jdprlogoBook – The Catching Point Transformation: A Twelve-Week Weight Loss Strategy Based in Reality Sponsor Info2Pood - https://2pood.com/Use coupon code “silveredge” to save 10% on your order. Want more over 50 health and wellness goodness?

We talk with interventional radiologist Dr. David Prologo about minimally invasive pain interventions, multidisciplinary pain management, and how he built a successful pain practice. --- CHECK OUT OUR SPONSOR RADPAD® Radiation Protection https://www.radpad.com/ --- EARN CME Reflect on how this Podcast applies to your day-to-day and earn AMA PRA Category 1 CMEs: https://earnc.me/GzA4Iu --- SHOW NOTES In this episode, host Dr. Michael Barraza interviews Dr. David Prologo, director of interventional radiology at Emory about minimally invasive pain interventions, multidisciplinary pain management, and how he created a booming practice that is well known by patients and providers nationally. Dr. Prologo begins by discussing his training in obesity medicine and how his interests in pain management developed. He discusses his book, The Catching Point, which explores weight loss culture and the fault of society and medical providers in placing the blame on patients and the new options available in IR for weight loss. He says his interest in pain management was similar to his interest in obesity medicine. He was curious about how he could use his tools and skills as an IR to treat obesity and pain with minimally invasive procedures. Next, they discuss how IR fits into the multidisciplinary team that plays a role in pain management. He explains that the combination of technology and an IRs position in the hospital makes them ideal for the job. He says a key is to maintain relationships with all other specialties by focusing initially on procedures that other specialties don't perform, in order to build rapport. He also notes that the procedures he performs result in rapid pain reduction and greatly decrease length of stay which is a huge incentive for hospitals and other specialties to seek out IR and make referrals. Finally, the two discuss the types of patients Dr. Prologo treats, and the procedures he does. He divides patient population into neoplastic versus non neoplastic pain, and spine versus non spine pain. He sees 90% of patients in clinic for procedure planning. Dr. Prologo emphasizes the importance of advocating for patients and continuing to see them even if they do not need an IR procedure. He discusses his 8, 3, 3, 3 method for percutaneous cryoneurolysis and discusses the various outcomes he is able to achieve in pain reduction. Dr. Prologo minimizes non responders by doing test blocks, understanding central desensitization, and selecting patients for procedures appropriately. --- RESOURCES Interventional Cryoneurolysis: An Illustrative Approach: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33308581/ Focused Cryo: https://gra.org/company/213/Focused_Cryo.html Nantes criteria for pudendal neuralgia: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17828787/ The Catching Point https://www.catchingpoint.com David Prologo Website: https://www.drprologo.com/about

In this episode we interview J. David Prologo, M.D., an Interventional Radiologist at Emory University with additional Board Certification in Obesity Medicine, and the Author of The Catching Point Transformation. Dr. Prologo discusses his interventional radiology practice and how the field of IR has evolved to retool previously developed procedures to be treat patients with obesity. He also describes the central themes of his book The Catching Point, consisting of evidence-based explanations for why many people fail to adhere to diets, why obesity is a multifactorial condition, available treatments for obesity, and how one can reach the "Catching Point" for changing their diet and lifestyle. Lastly, Dr. Prologo provides advice for how medical students and residents can maintain a healthy lifestyle while enduring the demanding schedule of a medical training. *Views expressed in this podcast are those of the individuals, not their respective institutions J.

David Prologo about his book “The Catching Point Transformation - A Twelve-Week Weight Loss Strategy Based in Reality”.Dr. Prologo, is a uniquely double board-certified interventional radiologist and obesity medicine specialist who has spent his entire career working from the perspective of the patient to develop compassionate, out-of the-box solutions for those who suffer with complicated pain syndromes, struggle to lose weight, or have difficulty navigating the healthcare system.Dr. Prologo discovered the widely acclaimed capacity curve to define a “catching point,” beyond which dieting and exercise are no longer difficult. The catching point has been shown to correspond to a precise quantum of exercise capacity, 210 met-minutes to be exact. “We get people to a new place. A place from which they can be successful when they start a new diet or exercise program. Beyond the catching point – all of this is easy.”PS – Dr. Prologo is also a trained MMA Fighter!Listen in to find out how Dr. Prologo can help you be your best!

“The application of the interventional radiology skill sets to pain has created a new reservoir for alternatives to opioids. There are brand-new options that didn't exist 10 years ago to treat patients with pain.” —J. David Prologo, MD, FSIRIn the audio version of "Pain killers: IR can play a critical healing role for patients as the United States battles an opioid epidemic and pain crisis"  (IR Quarterly: Winter 2019), author Melanie Padgett Powers describes the role IRs can play for patients in the opioid epidemic.Read the article.Contact us with your ideas and questions, or read more about about interventional radiology in IR Quarterly magazine or SIR's Patient Center.(c) Society of Interventional Radiology.Support the show

David Prologo, MD is a Christian, a Husband, a Father, and a Fighter. He is a dual board-certified interventional radiologist and obesity medicine specialist.  Dr. Prologo has spent more than twenty years specifically analyzing the phenomenon of diet attrition—why do diets always fail? More importantly, when they do fail, why do we blame the patients for that failure?  That journey led Dr. Prologo to perform first in human advanced interventional procedures to manage obesity, diabetes, and other metabolic conditions. It further led to the identification of the catching point—a clear pivot point beyond which calorie restriction and exercise are easier for patients. Dr. Prologo has been recognized nationally and internationally for his work, including features on The Today Show, in the Washington Post, on Capitol Hill, in numerous in peer-reviewed journal publications, countless web based invited expert articles, and much more.  He currently lives in Atlanta, Georgia with his wife and two children. Dr. Prologo continues to advocate for those who are in pain or struggle with weight loss – particularly driving an agenda of acceptance, inclusion, and love.   In this conversation Dr. Prologo talks about his recent clinical trial that quickly gained attention, which involved freezing the hunger nerve. Dr. Prologo shares why and how this trial was effective in helping patients with weightloss long term. We then transition the conversation to weightloss in general: why do most diets fail, how does a physiology of an overweight patient differ from the one with normal BMI, willpower relevance, success factors and introduce the notion of the catching point. Dr. Prologo elaborates on the science, lessons learned and his experience of working with his patients, which he also summarized in his upcoming book "The Catching Point Transformation" available for preorder today.
