Interventional radiology (IR) is a medical subspecialty that uses medical imaging to guide minimally invasive procedures, offering a less invasive alternative to traditional surgery. These procedures diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions, often with faster recovery times and fewer complications.
IR procedures are performed through small incisions or punctures, often using imaging guidance (X-ray, CT, MRI, or ultrasound) to navigate instruments within the body. IR is used in various specialties, including cardiovascular, oncological, and gastrointestinal procedures.
