Interventional Radiology
is a subspecialty of radiology in which minimally
invasive procedures are performed using
image guidance.
Some of these procedures are done for purely
diagnostic purposes (e.g., angiograms), while
others are done for treatment purposes (e.g.,
angioplasties). Pictures (images) are used to
direct these procedures, which are usually done
with needles or other tiny instruments like small
tubes called catheters. The images provide road
maps that allow the Interventional Radiologist to
guide these instruments through the body to the
areas of interest.
