Frequently Asked Questions :
They use imaging to guide targeted treatments for a wide range of diseases and conditions, some of them serious. Interventional radiology is a treatment option for conditions such as cardiovascular disease, stroke, cancer, uterine fibroids, varicose veins and many other common medical issues.
Most interventional procedures cause limited discomfort. Any pain that occurs is usually controlled with a combination of conscious sedation (medication given to a patient who remains awake) and local anaesthetics. The doctor explains what to expect before the procedure.
Diagnostic radiology diagnoses diseases and injuries using imaging technologies, while interventional radiology involves performing procedures such as biopsies, catheterizations, and angiograms to diagnose and treat conditions.
Compared with open surgery, vascular interventional radiology often means less pain, less blood loss, a shorter recovery and minimal scarring, because it is done through a small puncture rather than a large incision. Whether it is suitable depends on the condition, and like any procedure it carries some risks, which the doctor explains beforehand.
