Interventional Radiology (IR) offers minimally invasive, image-guided treatments that target disease with precision while preserving healthy tissue. Using CT, ultrasound, and fluoroscopy, our IR team delivers cancer therapies and symptom relief through tiny skin punctures rather than open surgery, reducing pain, risks, and recovery time for suitable patients. Our interventional radiology department delivers the below therapies:
- Biopsy
Image-guided needle biopsies obtain small tissue samples safely and accurately for diagnosis.
- Catheter Placement
We place vascular or drainage catheters through the skin to deliver treatment, relieve blockages or drainage.
- Transarterial Chemoembolization (TACE)
TACE directs high-dose chemotherapy and tiny beads directly into tumor-feeding vessels.
- RF / MW Ablation
Radiofrequency and microwave ablation use heat to destroy tumors locally while sparing surrounding organs.
- Chemosaturation
Chemosaturation isolates the liver’s blood supply so we can bathe tumors in targeted chemotherapy with reduced systemic exposure.
