Imaging and Interventional Radiology involves diagnostic imaging techniques and minimally invasive procedures guided by imaging technology to diagnose and treat various conditions.

Procedures include biopsies, catheter placements, embolizations, and other techniques to treat conditions such as tumors, blockages, and internal bleeding.

These procedures use imaging techniques such as X-rays, CT scans, or ultrasound to guide the placement of instruments and perform interventions with precision.

Most procedures are performed under local anesthesia or sedation to minimize discomfort. Patients may experience some soreness or mild pain afterward.

Preparation varies by procedure. It may include fasting, avoiding certain medications, or specific instructions provided by your healthcare provider.

It helps assess kidney function and diagnose conditions like kidney disease and dehydration.

Typically, fasting is not necessary, but inform your healthcare provider about any medications or supplements.

It provides crucial information about kidney health, aiding in diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of kidney-related conditions.

Results are usually available within a day, allowing for timely medical decisions based on kidney function assessment.

Preparation involves consultations with your surgical team, understanding your surgical options, and possibly undergoing pre-surgery tests.
