Interventional Radiology is a specialized field of medicine where physicians use medical imaging to see inside the body while delicately guiding tiny tools through the body's natural pathways. Patients usually go home with a Band-Aid just hours after their Minimally Invasive, Image-guided procedure (MIIP). MIIPs can treat adults and children with a wide variety of diseases throughout the body. MIIPs can help patients after surgery or even help patients avoid surgery altogether.
