Cross-Sectional Interventional
Cross-sectional Interventional provides a wide range of image-guided diagnostic and therapeutic procedures that are often alternatives to surgery. The primary imaging modalities used as guidance for these procedures are ultrasonography and computed tomography. Cross-sectional interventional radiologists are highly trained in imaging and performance of these medical procedures while minimizing patient discomfort.
This clinical service is comprised of six physicians and two physician assistants. Clinical volume is approximately 2,400 procedures annually. The procedures include core or fine needle biopsies, diagnostic and therapeutic fluid aspirations, catheter placement for drainage of infected fluid collections, botulism toxin injection for spastic paralysis, treatment of catheter-induced pseudo-aneurysms with thrombin injection, and percutaneous and intraoperative radiofrequency and cryoablations of liver and renal masses. Consultations are also provided for difficult abdominal and pelvic cases needing image-guided procedures.
We are equipped with the cutting-edge technology and the broad-based experience of our team provides an updated approach to image-guided procedures. We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of care that can be provided.
