This completely revised and extended third edition guides through an extended range of CT- or MR-guided procedures, including a comprehensive section on interventional oncology as the most rapidly growing segment in Interventional Radiology (IR).IR has become a rapidly growing area of modern medicine, delivering minimally invasive patient-focused care. Its broad variety of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures became an indispensable part of modern medicine. Cross-sectional imaging techniques such as computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) paved the way for the rapid evolution of non-vascular interventions including percutaneous biopsy, drainage, ablation and neurolysis, with an ever-growing range of applications and indications.A particular focus is set on clinical practice – featuring also patient care and assistance on how to build an interventional service – as well as on the most recent trends in robotics and artificial intelligence for non-vascular IR.This book represents a most valuable source of information including step-by-step instructions for the radiologist dealing with all kinds of non-vascular procedures.

Interventional radiology is an indispensable and still expanding area of modern medicine that encompasses numerous diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. The revised and extended second edition of this volume covers a broad range of non-vascular interventions guided by CT or MR imaging. Indications, materials, techniques, and results are all carefully discussed. A particularly comprehensive section is devoted to interventional oncology as the most rapidly growing branch of interventional radiology. In addition, detailed information is provided that will assist in establishing and developing an interventional service. This richly illustrated book will be a most valuable source of information and guidance for all radiologists who deal with non-vascular procedures.
