    Diagnostic radiology is increasingly used for therapy, not just diagnosis. Interventional radiology techniques now offer definitive or palliative treatments, sometimes replacing surgery for various conditions.

    Area of Science:

    • Interventional Radiology
    • Medical Imaging
    • Minimally Invasive Procedures

    Background:

    • Diagnostic radiology's role is evolving beyond imaging.
    • Therapeutic applications of diagnostic procedures are expanding.
    • Percutaneous techniques are now used for both diagnosis and treatment.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the evolving role of diagnostic radiology in medicine.
    • To highlight the increasing therapeutic applications of radiological procedures.
    • To discuss specific interventional techniques and their clinical utility.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of current literature and clinical practices in diagnostic and interventional radiology.
    • Presentation of illustrative cases demonstrating therapeutic applications.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Discussion of indications, techniques, and potential complications.

    • Main Results:

    • Percutaneous catheterization, initially for diagnostics, is now used therapeutically in renal and biliary systems.
    • Procedures like embolization, calculus removal, drainage, and stenosis dilatation can be definitive treatments.
    • Palliative treatments for malignancies include intraarterial chemotherapy and obstruction relief.

    Conclusions:

    • Diagnostic radiology has expanded into therapeutic interventions, offering alternatives to surgery.
    • Interventional radiology provides effective definitive and palliative treatment options.
    • These minimally invasive procedures have significant implications for patient management.
