Frequently Asked Questions
What is Interventional Radiology?
Interventional radiology (IR) is a medical specialty that uses image guidance — X-ray, CT, ultrasound — to perform procedures through small skin punctures instead of open surgery. IR treats conditions including varicose veins, liver tumours, fibroids, DVT, and more without large surgical incisions or general anaesthesia.
What makes a minimally invasive procedure different from surgery?
Minimally invasive IR procedures require only a needle puncture (2–4 mm), use local anaesthesia, take 30–90 minutes, and allow same-day or next-day discharge. Open surgery requires large incisions, general anaesthesia, and weeks of recovery.
Does Dr. Patel treat international patients?
Yes. Dr. Patel treats patients from the UAE, UK, USA, Australia, South Africa, and other countries seeking high-quality, cost-effective minimally invasive care in India. Please contact the clinic at +91-9586961070 to discuss international consultation.
