Vascular and interventional radiology
Vascular and Interventional radiology allows physicians to diagnose and treat conditions throughout the body using minimally invasive image-guided procedures. Through X-rays, CT, ultrasound, MRI and other imaging techniques, physicians are able to guide catheters and devices through the body to treat disease at its source.
Our physicians use safe and effective interventional radiology procedures to treat many diseases and conditions, including cancer, venous and arterial diseases, liver disease, infertility, fibroids, vertebral compression fractures, and conditions affecting the male and female reproductive systems.

- Interventional radiologists are physicians who have passed rigorous exams (board-certification) and who specialize in minimally invasive image-guided procedures.
