The West Clinic provides the latest Interventional Radiology procedures for its patients. This rapidly growing area of medicine provides minimally invasive, targeted treatments that are performed using imaging guidance. Highly specialized, board certified Interventional Radiologists use their expertise in reading x-rays, ultrasound and other medical images to guide small instruments through the blood vessels or other pathways to treat disease. The result is generally easier for the patient because it involves no large incisions, less risk, less pain and shorter recovery times than traditional surgery.
