What is Interventional Radiology?

Preparing for Your Interventional Radiology Appointment

Interventional radiology refers to radiologists treating disease with minimally invasive surgery. These surgeries are performed using radiologic images to guide small catheters. Because many of these procedures are safer and more cost effective, interventional radiology is replacing some traditional surgeries.

Our interventional radiology team performs dozens of types of minimally invasive interventions with patients鈥攕tents, tubes, drains, ports, shunts, biopsies, embolizations, ablations, and more. Our radiologists specialize in interpreting scans, which they use to navigate in the body in real time, guided by fluoroscopy and sometimes MRI.

These specialists also work with neurologists, oncologists, and surgeons collaboratively on difficult and complex cases, providing you with cutting edge treatment options.
