From diagnosis to treatment, with minimally invasive techniques.
What is a minimally invasive procedure?
It consists of a diagnostic or therapeutic procedure, in which the minimal necessary access is used to that end, avoiding large surgical wounds, for example: treating a liver tumor by introducing a needle through the skin and into the liver in order to eliminate the tumor without the need of performing a conventional surgery.
What is Interventional Radiology?
Interventional Radiology is a subspecialty within Radiology that focuses on diagnosing or treating a wide range of diseases through minimally invasive techniques.
Procedures are performed with the assistance of: X rays, ultrasound scans, Magnetic Resonance (MR) or Computer Tomography (CAT), and angiography, which produce images as guides for special devices that are introduced into the patient in order to monitor blood vessels or other paths and locate an injury or diseased organ, so it can be treated.
Who performs Interventional Radiology procedures?
These procedures are performed by a group, composed of people who are highly qualified in diagnostic imaging, led by radiologists with advanced studies in interventional radiology or neuroradiology, which, in turn, is part of an interdisciplinary team of nurses, technicians, anesthesiologists, and other specialists.
Who undergoes Interventional Radiology treatments?
Interventional Radiology is used to treat patients of all ages by means of different types of procedures, addressed to multiple pathologies of different organs. For this reason, in this field, physicians work closely with specialists from all areas.
The diagnostic imaging service, in compliance with its continuous training programs, encourages professional and human talent development. The various subspecialties hold academic meetings every day with the participation of our specialists, residents, intern doctors and students, as well as students from other institutions of the country who come to do their medical clerkships in the department, thus widening their knowledge under the continuing education program.
More than 300 different studies are offered, using high-tech equipment in X-ray, magnetic resonance and medical scannography, procedures, which allow to perform virtually all types of examinations and diagnoses carried out at an international level. One of our main features is our team of 18 full-time radiologists, trained to interpret and perform studies across subspecialties.
Our modern mammography equipment for breast tomosynthesis and our team of radiologists specially trained in breast procedures, make this Service a Breast Center of Excellence.
Our Diagnostic Imaging Service team of radiologists participate in multiple medical meetings and multidisciplinary decision-making boards across the different services of the clinic. An innovative training program with a face-to-face and virtual methodology through the Moodle platform was developed, addressed to our technologists. Face-to-face forums are also held where different specialties were involved.
A team of subspecialized and full-time radiologists are part of the Service’s human resource,who perform interventional, diagnostic and treatment procedures under all modalities (CT, Ultrasound, Fluoroscopy, Mammography, etc.), including biopsies, drainages, catheter placement, blockage treatment.
Our modern image storage platform (PACS) allows all images to be promptly distributed across the clinic, including doctors’ offices, hospitalization wards and results delivery.
