Interventional Radiology (IR) is a super-speciality of radiology that provides image-guided, minimally invasive techniques for precise diagnosis and delivery of precise treatment to patients. Interventional radiology techniques are the least invasive, so definitive diagnostic and /or therapeutic options are available for patients. Interventional techniques are used for treating different diseases that involve virtually any part of the body. With the use of advanced technology, we are able to deliver optimal results with minimal risk. The use of image-guided procedures helps in diagnosing and treating early-stage diseases or conditions with minimal invasion, without surgery.
Most of the IR procedures are done on outpatient basis or daycare admission only, which reduces the hospital stay of patients and enables them to return home faster. This minimises the disruption to daily lives of the patient and also their near and dear ones.
Consequently, procedures under interventional radiology tend to be less expensive than other forms of therapy and are associated with less risk and procedure complications, while giving the best results to patients.
Interventional Radiology overlaps/ works in conjunction with various other medical disciplines including Gastroenterology, Gastrointestinal surgery , Pulmonology, Gynaecology, General surgery, Vasccular surgery etc.
