Frequently Asked Questions

Are interventional radiologists doctors?

Yes, interventional radiologists are doctors who completed medical school and then specialised in interventional radiology.

Some of the procedures performed by interventional radiologists are angioplasty (repair or unblocking of blood vessels), thrombolysis (dissolving blood clots), biopsies, stenting, embolization (blocking of blood flow to cancer cells), and radiofrequency ablation (nerve pain reduction).

Interventional radiologists perform surgeries but they do not perform traditional surgeries. Instead, they use imaging techniques to perform minimally invasive procedures. Interventional radiology procedures are less painful and less risky in comparison to traditional procedures.
