An interventional radiologist is a medical specialist trained in using imaging techniques such as X-rays, ultrasound, CT scans, and MRIs to guide minimally invasive procedures. They treat a wide range of conditions, including vascular diseases, cancer, fibroids, varicose veins, liver disorders, and kidney issues.

Common treatments performed by interventional radiologists include angioplasty, embolization, stenting, biopsies, VenaSeal, and radiofrequency ablation. These procedures are less invasive than traditional surgery, which often results in shorter recovery times and less pain.

In Mumbai, interventional radiologists play a key role in managing vascular conditions, cancer therapies, and performing procedures like uterine fibroid embolization (UFE) and varicose vein treatments such as VenaSeal and endovenous laser therapy (EVLT).
