What is Interventional Radiology?

Interventional radiology is a subspecialty of radiology that uses minimally invasive procedures guided by imaging techniques such as X-rays, ultrasound, CT scans, or MRI to diagnose and treat diseases throughout the body. These procedures are performed by interventional radiologists who have specialized training in using imaging technology to guide catheters, needles, and other instruments through blood vessels or other pathways to treat a wide range of conditions.

Our Interventional Radiology Services

At Aminci Hospital, we offer a wide range of interventional radiology services, including but not limited to:

• Angiography: This procedure uses X-ray imaging to examine blood vessels in various parts of the body, such as the brain, heart, or legs, to diagnose and treat conditions like blockages or aneurysms.
• Angioplasty and Stenting: These procedures involve opening blocked or narrowed blood vessels using a balloon or a stent to restore blood flow to the affected area.
• Embolization: Embolization is a technique used to block blood flow to a specific area of the body, often to treat conditions such as tumors or abnormal bleeding.
• Biopsy: Interventional radiologists can use imaging guidance to perform biopsies, taking tissue samples for further analysis to diagnose conditions like cancer.
• Radiofrequency Ablation: This procedure uses heat generated by radiofrequency energy to destroy abnormal tissues, such as tumors, without the need for surgery.
• Vertebroplasty and Kyphoplasty: These procedures are used to treat spinal compression fractures by injecting bone cement into the affected vertebrae to stabilize and relieve pain.

Benefits of Interventional Radiology

Interventional radiology procedures offer several advantages over traditional surgery, including:

• Minimally Invasive: Most interventional radiology procedures are minimally invasive, resulting in less pain, shorter recovery times, and lower risk of complications compared to open surgery.
• Less Scarring: Because interventional radiology procedures involve only small incisions, scarring is minimal or often unnoticeable.
• Faster Recovery: Patients typically recover faster after interventional radiology procedures and can often return to their normal activities sooner.
• Reduced Risk: The use of imaging guidance allows for greater precision in targeting the treatment area, reducing the risk of damage to surrounding tissues.

Preparing for an Interventional Radiology Procedure

Prior to undergoing an interventional radiology procedure at Aminci Hospital, our healthcare team will provide you with detailed instructions on how to prepare. This may include fasting for a certain period, stopping certain medications, or arranging for transportation to and from the hospital.

What to Expect During the Procedure

During an interventional radiology procedure, you will be positioned on a specialized table, and the interventional radiologist will use imaging equipment to guide the procedure. You may receive local anesthesia or sedation to ensure your comfort throughout the process.

After the Procedure

After the interventional radiology procedure is complete, you will be monitored for a brief period to ensure that there are no immediate complications. Depending on the complexity of the procedure, you may be able to return home the same day or require an overnight stay for observation.
