Radiology is the medical specialty focusing on visualizing and capturing images of the body to diagnose and understand illnesses. Interventional radiology (IR) is a newer medical specialty that uses image-guided, minimally invasive procedures to both visualize and treat illnesses.

Benefits of Interventional Radiology Procedures

Using advanced medical imaging (including x-rays and , interventional radiologists can treat conditions throughout the body with thin tubes that are guided to the exact area needing to be examined or treated. These minimally invasive procedures require a very small incision (cut), so there is a lower risk of complications, less blood loss and a shorter recovery time.

All of our doctors are highly accomplished physicians who prioritize patient care and comfort. Many are leaders in their fields or are the nation’s top expert in their subspecialty. Our doctors are invested in ensuring your optimal results and are involved from initial diagnosis through the minimally invasive treatments.
