What is IR – Interventional Radiology?
Interventional Radiology (IR) is a specialized field of medicine that uses advanced imaging techniques to perform minimally invasive procedures. These methods allow doctors to diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions with greater precision, reduced risk, and faster recovery compared to traditional surgery.
IR plays a vital role in treating conditions affecting the vascular, gastrointestinal, central nervous, and other systems.
