The images can provide valuable information for diagnosing and directing treatment for a variety of diseases and conditions without the use of radiation or invasive methods.

Inferior vena cava (IVC) filters
IVC is a major blood vessel that returns deoxygenated blood from your lower body back to your heart. An IVC filter is a small, cone-shaped medical device placed into your IVC just below your kidneys to prevent blood clots in your legs from traveling to your heart and lungs. IVC filter insertion is a minimally invasive procedure and can be performed on an outpatient basis.
Interventional oncology
Interventional oncology is a subspecialty of interventional radiology focusing on the diagnosis and treatment of cancer and cancer-related problems.
Interventional oncology procedures provide minimally invasive, targeted treatment of cancer. Image guidance, the use of real-time imaging on an X-ray to visualize the location where a procedure will be performed or a device will be placed, is used in combination with the most current innovations available to treat cancerous tumors while minimizing possible injury to other organs in your body.
These techniques are reserved for tumors that cannot be surgically removed or effectively treated with systemic chemotherapy or anti-cancer drugs that travel through the bloodstream to all parts of your body. These procedures are also frequently used in combination with other therapies provided by other members of your cancer team.
Interventional pain management
The goal of pain management is to provide relief of painful symptoms originating from irreversible spine conditions in place of oral medications with possible adverse side effects. Interventional pain management involves a series of therapeutic injections to particular spine areas to help alleviate pain.
Limb salvage
Our program transforms the standard of care for "no option" critical limb ischemia patients at risk of amputation. Our surgeons provide consultations if you are experiencing blood flow blockages in the leg, advanced PAD, foot ulcers or gangrene.
Varicose vein care
Varicose veins are chronic and recurrent conditions. The variety of treatments available does not offer a cure, but rather a control of the condition. Successfully treated veins cannot come back. However, your inborn tendency to develop new veins will not be cured by this or any other form of treatment. Our team treats venous insufficiency completely, removing all backward-flowing veins, making your treatment for varicose veins as thorough as possible.
