Interventional Oncology
Interventional oncology is one of four pillars of a multidisciplinary team approach in the treatment of cancer and cancer-related diseases. Medical, surgical, and radiation oncology are some of the other treatments available. Interventional oncology methods allow for a less intrusive diagnosis and treatment of cancer. To treat dangerous tumours while avoiding any injury to other body organs, image guidance (fluoroscopy/ DSA, CT, or USG) is employed in conjunction with the most recent advances available. The majority of patients who have these procedures are either outpatients or require a one-night stay in the hospital. Some of these cancer treatments are regional, covering multiple parts of the liver with chemoembolization or radioembolization. Other treatments, such as radiofrequency ablation (heating) to treat focal lesions in the kidney, liver, lung, and bone, are better known as local. Such procedures are often reserved for patients whose cancer cannot be surgically removed or effectively treated with systemic chemotherapy. They’re also regularly utilized in conjunction with other therapies that members of the oncology team have access to.
