Interventional Radiology at Co-Operative Hospital Kattappana is a specialized field within radiology. In radiology, doctors not only interpret patient’s medical images, but they also perform minimally invasive surgical procedures through small incisions in the body.
Interventional radiology refers to a range of techniques which rely on the use of radiological image guidance like X Ray, Cath Lab (Fluoroscopy), Ultra Sound, CT scan (Computed Tomography) and MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) to precisely target therapy.
Most interventional radiology treatments are minimally invasive alternatives to open and laparoscopic (Keyhole) surgery. The interventional radiologist can see the inside of the body and treat complex conditions ranging from brain aneurysms to cancers, through very small incisions (2-3mm in 90% cases), with unmatched precision and speed. Our interventional radiologist is trained in radiology and interventional therapy from India and abroad.
The Department of Radiology & Imaging at Cooperative Hospital Kattapana offers complete range of diagnostic and radiology services. The department conducts all conventional, routine and special studies and has modern state-of-the-art equipments. Our team of radiologists and radiology technologists have in depth knowledge and experience in Radiology.
