Interventional Radiology

Interventional radiologist are the doctors trained in radiology and interventional therapy. Unique combination of skills.

Overview

Rapid strides in technology have revolutionized patient care. A prime testimony is this fact is the filed on Interventional Radiology which involves administering various therapeutic options under image guidance. Interventional Radiology has evolved from angiography, a specialized X ray test done for evaluation of blood vessels. Almost all diseases of blood vessels can be treated with Interventional Radiology. An ever progressing and diversifying branch of medicine, it finds application in virtually all disciplines of modern medicine. Combining the most modern technology and expert personnel, we are now equipped to deliver the latest and the best to all our patients.
