Interventional Radiology Vascular Treatments

Interventional Radiology is commonly used in vascular diagnostic and therapeutic treatments. These minimally invasive, image guided procedures can make many treatments more comfortable for the patient and are often performed as an outpatient procedure. At the Doctors Hospital in Columbus, GA, we offer a number of interventional services, which include:

Arterial Intervention

  • Treatment for peripheral arterial vascular disease and ulcers/wounds
  • Treatment of renal artery hypertension
  • Treatment for active bleeding related to trauma, gastrointestinal ulcers, tumors, diverticulosis, hemoptysis
  • Diagnostic arteriograms including cerebral arteriograms, visceral arteriograms, aortograms with lower extremity runoff
