Vascular and Interventional Radiology in Pune

Interventional radiology (abbreviated IR or sometimes VIR) is a field of medicine in which minimally invasive procedures are performed using image guidance (e.g., CT, fluoroscopy, ultrasound). Some of these procedures are done to diagnose illness while others are done for treatment purposes. Different imaging modalities available to interventional radiologists enable them to manipulate and guide tiny instruments throughout the body which in many instances avoids more invasive open surgery.

Vascular and Interventional Radiology is one of the most rapidly expanding areas in medicine and has led the current movement toward minimally invasive therapy. Our patient population ranges from infancy to the elderly and includes procedures spanning the full range of the field. We perform both vascular and non-vascular interventions such as angioplasty, stenting, atherectomy, crynoplasty, thrombolysis, and embolization as well as biliary, renal, enteric, pulmonary, and transplant-related interventions. We have a robust interventional oncology practice as well, which includes chemoembolization and radioembolization.

Nonvascular intervention includes treatment of benign conditions and cancer (when it is known as interventional oncology). Interventional radiology (IR) therapies are used for the following:

To treat tumors/cancer, such as tumor ablation, embolization, chemoembolization, and radioembolization (SIRT)
To relieve the effects of cancer on other systems, eg blockage of the esophagus, bowel, kidney (nephrostomy), or liver (biliary drainage)
To drain collections of fluid or pus in the chest or abdomen
To place feeding tubes (gastrostomy, jejunostomy)
To treat collapsed spinal bones (vertebroplasty)
