Interventional radiology procedures



Interventional radiology refers to minimally invasive procedures that diagnose and treat a variety of conditions.

Interventional radiologists insert a catheter through a tiny incision in your wrist or upper thigh and into a large blood vessel.

Since interventional radiology procedures only require a small incision, you experience less pain and a faster recovery. Typically, interventional radiology procedures do not require an overnight stay in the hospital.
