Interventional Care, formerly called Interventional Radiology, in the Capital Region Health Park in Latham, NY, offers patients a wide array of interventional care services for men’s and women’s health, including uterine fibroids, chronic headaches, cancer care, musculoskeletal interventions, vascular access, venous disease, arterial disease, lymphatic interventions, dialysis interventions, liver disease and portal hypertension, and GI and GU interventions. Our treatments utilize diagnostic imaging equipment (such as X-rays, ultrasound, and CT scans) to guide specialized tools throughout the body that can successfully treat the conditions we are often tasked with diagnosing.
