How Our Interventional Radiologists Improve Surgery at 麻豆高清
The interventional radiologists here at 麻豆高清 are nationally recognized for their expertise in using imaging technology and performing minimally invasive procedures. They use X-Rays, MRI and other imaging tools to guide small instruments (catheters and endoscopes) to treat a wide variety of diseases.
Some patients cannot receive a minimally invasive treatment by an interventional radiologist. In these cases, our interventional radiologists help the surgical team by providing imaging assistance and performing supportive surgical procedures using minimally invasive techniques.
鈼 Percutaneous (through the skin) biopsies: Biopsies use advanced image guidance to take a small sample of tissue for diagnosis and to guide therapy.
鈼 Medication injections: Small instruments are guided into the body to precisely deliver medications without harming the healthy tissues.
鈼 Gastrostomy-Jejunostomy (G-J) tube placement: A G-J tube is placed using X-Ray guidance. A G-J tube allows food and medicine to be given directly into the stomach or jejunum instead of through the mouth.
鈼 PICC line placement: A peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) line is a thin, soft, long catheter (tube) that is inserted into a vein in the arm, leg or neck. The tip of the catheter is positioned in a large vein that carries blood into the heart. The PICC line is used for long-term intravenous antibiotics, nutrition or medications and for blood draws.
鈼 Lumbar puncture: During a lumbar puncture, the physician will insert a needle into the lower spine to obtain cerebrospinal fluid to look for infection or cancer cells, inject a chemotherapy drug for patients with cancer, or relieve cerebrospinal fluid pressure.
鈼 Therapeutic joint injections: Joint injections are a form of treatment for patients with arthritis. Using ultrasound, X-Ray or CT scan for guidance, the doctor will place a small needle into the affected joint and inject a high-dose steroid.
