Interventional radiology is a subspecialty of radiology in which we use detailed imaging to guide us as we perform several minimally invasive procedures. We perform these procedures through specially designed thin, flexible plastic tubes called catheters, along with guide wires that we can pass through blood vessels or other pathways in your body.
In most cases, we only need to make a small incision in your skin to pass the guide wire and catheter through. You likely will feel little or no discomfort or pain during the procedure, because we use local anesthetics to help you feel more comfortable. Most procedures only require minimal amounts of sedation.
