Interventional Radiology (IR)

Minimally invasive procedures. Maximum precision. Faster recovery.

Interventional Radiology (IR) uses advanced imaging to guide targeted procedures—offering effective, less invasive alternatives to surgery. Intercity Radiology has skilled interventional radiologists who perform a wide range of image-guided treatments to diagnose and treat various conditions with pinpoint accuracy and minimal downtime.

  • With any procedure there is a lot to know. Our skilled team will guide you through every step to ensure your comfort and safety.

  • IR combines medical imaging (like ultrasound, CT, or fluoroscopy) with specially designed tools to treat conditions through small incisions or needle access. These techniques often result in:

    • Less pain

    • Lower risk of complications

    • Shorter recovery times

    • No need for general anesthesia

  • Our interventional radiologists work closely with your provider to treat or manage:

    • Vascular conditions: Peripheral artery disease, varicose veins, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and uterine fibroids

    • Cancer care: Tumor ablation, biopsies, and targeted delivery of chemotherapy or radiation

    • Chronic pain: Joint injections, nerve blocks, and spine treatments

    • Kidney and liver conditions: Drainage procedures, biopsies, and port placements

    • Minimally invasive biopsies and fluid drainage for diagnosis and symptom relief

    • Image-guided biopsies and aspirations

    • Joint injections for pain relief

    • Catheter placements (for dialysis, nutrition, or chemotherapy)

    • Paracentesis and thoracentesis (draining fluid from the abdomen or chest)

    • IVC filter placement/removal

    • Liver and kidney interventions
