About Interventional Radiology
Interventional radiology treats conditions through tiny punctures using X-ray, ultrasound or CT for guidance. Examples include blocking blood vessels to stop bleeding or shrink fibroids and tumours, opening blocked arteries and draining collections.
These procedures typically mean less pain, shorter stays and quicker recovery than open surgery.
