Interventional radiology, also known as vascular and interventional radiology (VIR) provides minimal invasive image diagnosis and treatment.

Our radiologist are highly trained to use image-guided technology to treat patients non-surgically. This provides alternative methods to open surgery, reduce overall risk, reduce pain and recovery times.

Interventional radiology treatments offer lower risk procedures with less pain and shorter recovery times compared to traditional surgical procedures.  Conditions that once required surgery can now often be treated non-surgically through Interventional Radiology.
