Vascular and Interventional Radiology
Interventional Radiology is a subspecialty in which procedures are performed using image guidance. This progressive area of medicine strives to care for patients in the most minimally invasive manner, including minimal sedation, while reducing complications and recovery time. Interventional radiologists rely on images produced from ultrasound, fluoroscopy, MRI and CT to guide them during the procedures. This process will allow our specialists to optimize the patient’s comfort and safety. Interventional radiologists help treat many of today’s toughest medical conditions.
