Interventional Radiology

Interventional Radiology

Interventional radiology is a medical specialty that performs various minimally-invasive procedures using medical imaging guidance, such as x-ray fluoroscopy, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, or ultrasound. 

What does an interventional radiologist do?

Interventional radiologists use X-Ray, CT, and other imaging to advance instruments in the body, such as in an artery to treat the disease at the source. Many conditions that once required surgery can be treated less invasively by Interventional radiologists.
