Interventional Radiology

Thanks to our state-of-the-art imaging technology—including CT, MRI, ultrasound, and fluoroscopy—we can perform minimally invasive procedures through tiny incisions. Interventional Radiology (IR) allows us to treat a range of conditions with greater precision and less risk than traditional surgery. We use IR for procedures like:

  • Pacemakers

  • Feeding tubes

  • Tracheal, ureteral, and urethral stents

  • Kidney and bladder stone removal

  • Vascular procedures

  • Bone fractures and joint displacements

Minimally Invasive Surgeries

Minimally invasive techniques, such as arthroscopy, laparoscopy, and thoracoscopy, offer many benefits including faster recovery, less pain, and smaller incisions. Some common minimally invasive procedures include:

  • Lung lobectomy

  • Intra-abdominal and intrathoracic mass removal

  • Cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal)

  • Adrenalectomy

  • Liver, kidney, and gastrointestinal biopsies

  • Pericardial window/pericardiectomy (to remove fluids in the sac around the heart)

  • Thoracic duct ligation for treatment of chylothorax

  • Gastropexy

  • Ovariohysterectomy and ovariectomy

  • Treatment of osteoarthritis, shoulder instability, elbow dysplasia, biceps tendon injuries, elbow fractures, and sacroiliac luxation
