Interventional Radiology

The department of Interventional Radiology utilizes multiple techniques including radiological image guidance, ultrasound, CT-computed tomography, X-ray fluoroscopy, and MRI - magnetic resonance imaging. Majority of Interventional Radiology procedures involve insertion of the needle in the skin and hence these procedures are often called pinhole surgeries. We provide a broad range of gastrointestinal, vascular and interventional procedures utilizing latest and most advanced technologies. At Fortis, interventional radiologists have the best in class expertise in diagnostic image interpretation, the manipulation of needles, the use of fine catheter tubes to navigate around the body under imaging control. Interventional radiology provides benefits such as reduced risk, shorter hospital stay, lower cost, great comfort and quick recovery. The team also works closely with the specialized doctors of other departments to render best possible outcomes and to attend to all the details of the patients' condition.
