Interventional Radiology Services
Interventional Radiology uses image guidance (x-ray, ultrasound, CT and magnetic resonance) to perform minimally invasive procedures. Image guidance allows for increased precision and accuracy.
Most procedures are performed on an outpatient basis. They include opening blocked arteries, occluding blood flow to tumors and bleeding sites, draining abscesses, using fine needles to biopsy masses, and cementing vertebral fractures (vertebroplasty).
Conscious sedation, analgesia and local anesthesia
are used for patient comfort.
