Interventional radiology, also known as vascular and interventional radiology (VIR), provides minimally invasive image-guided diagnosis and treatment.
Our radiologists are highly trained in using image-guided technology to treat patients non-surgically. This provides an alternative to open surgery, reducing overall risk, pain and recovery time. Conditions that once required surgery can now often be treated non-surgically through interventional radiology.
Kansas Imaging Consultants (KIC) are board-certified interventional radiologists who specialize in minimally invasive and targeted procedures. Fredonia Regional Hospital is a proud partner in offering the most in-depth knowledge and least invasive procedures available, coupled with diagnostic and clinical experience across all modalities. Using X-rays, CT and other imaging technologies to diagnose disease processes in the body, KIC's physicians help treat patients at the source of the disease, non-surgically.
