Interventional Radiology

About Us

Interventional Radiology allows providers to diagnose and treat many conditions in an outpatient procedure using a small needle. Through a small incision, providers use ultrasounds, CT scans or MRIs to target specific areas for diagnosis and treatment. This typically allows the patient to avoid general anesthesia and surgery. Interventional radiology is especially important for cancer treatment.

Interventional Oncology

Interventional oncology plays an important role in cancer diagnosis and treatment. Our radiologists will work closely with your cancer team to determine the best treatment plan, which will often be used in combination with other therapies.

Interventional oncology procedures provide minimally invasive treatment for cancer by utilizing guided imaging to treat cancerous tumors. Interventional radiologists at Springfield Clinic can provide the following services to patients:

  • Radioembolization for liver cancer

  • Minimally invasive ablation for live and kidney cancer

  • Port and gastrostomy placement

Interventional oncology is typically reserved for patients who do not qualify for surgery, often due to the size or location of their tumor.

Arterial disease

Peripheral arterial disease is a condition caused by hardening of the arteries over time. This interferes with the normal flow of blood and can be dangerous if left untreated. Interventional radiology treatments include angioplasty, stents, thrombolytic therapy and stent-grafts.

Dialysis access

Dialysis treatment is for patients who have lost a significant amount of kidney function. Interventional radiologists insert dialysis catheters, manage catheter placement and perform other procedures to help ensure proper access.

Hospital-based procedures

Interventional radiologists work closely with hospitalists to help diagnose conditions and treat various symptoms or diseases. Conditions like a pulmonary embolism, embolization (blocking) of blood vessels, abscess drainage and many more are all treated with the assistance of interventional radiology.

Men's health

Patients struggling with urinary tract symptoms caused by an underlying prostate condition can be treated by an interventional radiologist using an X-ray or other advanced imaging.

Musculoskeletal Ultrasound

Also known as MSK, this ultrasound is a powerful and painless tool used by radiologists to provide real-time images of muscles, tendons, ligaments, nerves, and cartilage throughout the body.

Neurointerventional

Our highly-trained radiologists use medical imaging to perform minimally invasive procedures to diagnose and treat conditions of the brain, neck and spine.

Pain / spine intervention

Severe migraines, painful fractures, epidural steroid injection, nerve root blocks and several other conditions are regularly treated through interventional radiology.

Venous disease

Interventional radiology is used for diagnosis and treatment for patients experiencing painful varicose veins, deep vein thrombosis and those struggling with blood-clotting issues.
