What is interventional What is interventional radiology?radiology?
Interventional radiology is a Interventional radiology is a subspecialty which provides subspecialty which provides minimally invasive diagnosis and/or minimally invasive diagnosis and/or treatment using imaging (ultrasound, treatment using imaging (ultrasound, CT, or fluoroscopy) to target the CT, or fluoroscopy) to target the intervention and show the results of intervention and show the results of the intervention.the intervention.
