Department of Interventional Radiology
Interventional Radiology (IR) is a medical specialty that uses advanced imaging techniques such as X-rays, MRI, or ultrasound to guide minimally invasive procedures for diagnosing and treating various diseases throughout the body. Unlike traditional open surgery, IR procedures are performed through small incisions or natural openings, resulting in less pain, bleeding, infection, and scarring. IR is also more cost-effective and has lower risk of complications than other treatment options. IR can treat a wide range of conditions, from vascular diseases such as blockages, aneurysms and cancer, such as liver, kidney, lung, and bone tumors. IR offers patients a less invasive yet highly effective alternative for diagnosis and treatment.
