Interventional radiology. Application to family practice
Abstract
New minimally invasive interventional radiologic procedures are being developed and refined. These alternatives to standard surgical treatments have fewer complications, shorter hospital stays, and lower costs. A variety of procedures that assist in both benign and malignant diseases are particularly suited for palliative care in end-stage malignancy.
