Interventional Radiologist and critical care
An Interventional Radiologist is a specialized physician who utilizes minimally invasive techniques, guided by advanced imaging technology, to diagnose and treat a wide array of medical conditions. These doctors are trained in both diagnostic radiology and interventional procedures, enabling them to treat conditions from within the body with great precision. By leveraging tools like X-rays, CT scans, ultrasounds, and MRIs, they can pinpoint specific areas in the body and use image-guided techniques to perform targeted treatments without the need for open surgery.
Interventional radiologists perform a variety of procedures, often as alternatives to traditional surgery. These procedures include angiography, stenting, and embolization for treating blood vessel disorders, as well as tumor ablation and biopsies for cancer treatment. They are also experts in managing chronic conditions such as varicose veins, uterine fibroids, and deep vein thrombosis.
One of the most common procedures interventional radiologists perform is angioplasty, a treatment for blocked arteries. In this procedure, a small balloon is guided through the blood vessels to the blocked area and inflated to restore blood flow. Similarly, they place stents, small mesh tubes, in blood vessels to keep them open. These procedures are often used to treat patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) and coronary artery disease.
Another important procedure is embolization, which involves blocking abnormal blood flow to areas such as tumors or aneurysms. This is particularly useful in treating liver cancer, uterine fibroids, and gastrointestinal bleeding.
Interventional radiologists also perform radiofrequency ablation, a procedure that destroys cancerous tissue using heat. This is a minimally invasive treatment option for patients with tumors in the liver, lungs, kidneys, or bones.
