Advanced Radiology Solutions for Whole Health
When it comes to claiming whole health and wellness, you deserve comprehensive treatment options to get back to the life you love.
At AdventHealth Riverview, we're here to help you feel whole again through interventional radiology. Interventional radiology treats certain health conditions by combining minimally invasive solutions and advanced imaging technology like X-ray, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT) and ultrasound. These procedures only require a tiny incision, meaning less scarring, reduced pain and a quicker recovery.
Radiology To Treat You in Body, Mind and Spirit
At AdventHealth Riverview, we offer minimally invasive interventional radiology techniques to safely and efficiently treat a variety of conditions.
- Angiography and Atherectomy
-
A diagnostic angiogram is used to examine the inside of arteries and veins to detect blockages or narrowing of the vessels. An atherectomy is a minimally invasive procedure used to remove plaque from blocked or narrowed arteries.
- Embolization
-
Embolization is an interventional radiology technique used to stop abnormal bleeding or to cut off blood supply to a particular area, such as a tumor.
Catheters are used to deliver blood-clotting medicine or to place particles or coils in the vessels to stop blood flow.
Embolization can provide a lifesaving treatment for patients and can serve as an effective treatment for uterine fibroids and GI bleeding.
- Radiofrequency Ablation and Cryoablation
-
o Ablation is used to destroy abnormal cells with a catheter fitted with a tiny electrode. It can be used to treat everything from chronic pain to cancer. Cryoablation uses extremely cold gas, delivered through a needle, to destroy cells.
- Thrombectomy
-
A thrombectomy is a physical way to remove a blood clot. In this procedure, a catheter is inserted and guided to where the clot is located. Then, the clot is removed using the catheter.
- Vertebroplasty
-
Vertebroplasty is used to treat back pain and compression fractures of the spine. Doctors insert a needle into the affected vertebrae and inject bone cement to stabilize the vertebrae and prevent further damage.
