Interventional radiology
Imaging techniques like x-rays and ultrasound scans can now be used to not only diagnose but also treat medical problems inside the body. Guided by the images they’ve captured, interventional radiologists carry out procedures with great precision and less risk, pain and recovery time than open surgery.
> Interventional radiology procedures at Marcelle Ruth
As the least invasive technique available to treat most internal organs, interventional radiology is performed wherever possible at Marcelle Ruth to improve outcomes for patients and reduce their stay in hospital.
Our interventional radiologists are specially trained doctors who use the technique in many non-urgent procedures, from taking biopsies and removing tumours to unblocking arteries.
