Interventional Radiology Physicians
Interventional Radiology uses minimally invasive image-guided procedures to diagnose and treat diseases in nearly every organ system. The concept behind interventional radiology is to diagnose and treat patients using the least invasive techniques currently available in order to minimize risk to the patient and improve health outcomes. These physicians perform angiography, angioplasty and stent placement, biopsy procedures, line and tube placement, uterine fibroid embolization, fluid and abscess drainage, cancer treatments, kyphoplasty or vertebroplasty to treat compression fractures in the spine, and a host of other procedures to treat a wide variety of medical problems.
