Vascular and Interventional Radiology is a medical subspecialty dedicated to using minimally invasive surgical techniques with imaging guidance. A familiar example is an angioplasty to open clogged blood vessels. Vascular and Interventional Radiology procedures often replace open surgical procedures. They are generally easier for the patient because they involve no large incisions, less risk, less pain and shorter recovery times.The purpose of this website is to provide information on modern Vascular and Interventional Radiological procedures to those with medical problems that may be resolved through this technology.
