Editor's Note: One of the many advantages of electronic publication is the ability to identify previously published manuscripts with a particular focus, and in this manner establish virtual "collections" of articles, obviating the need for interested readers to search these out individually. The editors and staff of the Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology (JVIR) are pleased to introduce our first such collection, with a focus on an important maturing area of interest to many interventional radiologists: uterine artery embolization. This electronic collection comprises full articles and abstracts published in JVIR on this topic since 2007. Readers are encouraged to provide feedback regarding this collection to JVIR@SIRweb.org. We anticipate that this will be the first of many such electronic compilations.
