Mats-Ola Eriksson

My name is Mats-Ola Eriksson. I'm an interventional radiologist at Mälarsjukhuset Hospital in Eskilstuna, Sweden. I graduated from Uppsala University in 1997 and specialized in radiology and since 2005 subspecialized in interventional radiology, initially at Uppsala Univerity Hospital, but since 2013 and after writing my doctoral thesis on aortic dissections and intravascular ultrasound, at Mälarsjukhuset Hospital. I currently work as Deputy Clinic manager and Chief interventional radiologist. Our intitution hosts 2 state of the art interventional hybrid cath labs and we perform a broad variety of interventional procedures, ranging from vascular- and general surgery to interventional oncology, urology and gynecology. I also participate in different educational groups regarding radiation protection and justification for the use of radiological examinations.
I've always been interested in sports and competed on the Swedish national team in Triathlon during a few years before med school. I also competed in cycling at national elite level. In recent years I've switched to powerlifting and recreational endurance training. Besides spending time with my family, I enjoy music, both writing- and playing, especially the piano.
