Interventional radiology is a minimally invasive way of assessing disease and delivering targeted treatments. Interventional radiologists are board‑certified physicians with advanced training in minimally invasive therapy guided by imaging tools such as fluoroscopy (X‑ray), computed tomography (CT) and ultrasound. Many diseases that once required surgical treatment can be treated non‑surgically with less risk, less pain, and faster recovery time. It is routinely used to perform biopsies and to place shunts, feeding and drainage tubes, and peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs).

It can also be an alternative to surgery for serious medical conditions, such as vascular malformations, blood clots and kidney or liver abnormalities.
