What is interventional radiology?

Interventional radiology (IR) is a medical specialty that treats disease from the inside. Using imaging such as ultrasound and X-ray, an interventional radiologist guides a thin catheter through a pinhole-sized opening in the skin, rather than making a surgical incision. Many IR procedures, including embolization, are done in an outpatient clinic, and most patients go home the same day.

Why office-based care matters

Dr. Patel helped pioneer office-based interventional radiology in North Texas. Before joining Texas Endovascular, he co-founded an outpatient IR practice in Dallas and built treatment pathways for procedures that once required a hospital. For patients, that means:

• Treatment in a clinic, not a hospital, for most procedures
• A pinhole instead of a surgical incision
• Consultation, imaging and treatment in one place
• A faster return to work and family for many patients

Frequently asked questions about Dr. Patel

What does an interventional radiologist do?

An interventional radiologist uses real-time imaging to treat conditions through a small puncture in the skin. Common treatments include embolization, which blocks blood flow to a fibroid, enlarged prostate or inflamed joint tissue.

Is interventional radiology an alternative to surgery?

For many conditions, yes. Procedures such as UFE, PAE and GAE treat the condition without removing an organ or replacing a joint. Your doctor will review whether you are a candidate.
