Interventional Radiology in Hyderabad

Minimally invasive, image-guided procedures for cancer diagnosis, treatment and symptom relief

Interventional Radiology (IR) is a specialised field of medicine in which diagnostic and therapeutic procedures are performed through a needle puncture or a very small incision, guided by real-time imaging. Ultrasound, CT, fluoroscopy and angiography allow the interventional radiologist to direct needles, catheters and other instruments precisely to the target area inside the body, often reaching organs and lesions that would otherwise require open surgery.

At AIROC Hospitals, Kondapur, Interventional Radiology supports patients at every stage of the cancer journey. It is used to obtain tissue for diagnosis, to establish reliable access for chemotherapy, to deliver treatment directly to certain tumours, and to relieve problems such as bleeding, jaundice, urinary obstruction and fluid accumulation that can interrupt cancer treatment or cause distressing symptoms.

Because these procedures are performed through small punctures rather than large incisions, many patients experience less pain, a shorter hospital stay and a faster return to normal activity than with conventional open surgery. Interventional Radiology also offers treatment possibilities for patients who are not fit for major surgery. However, it is not automatically the better option in every situation, and suitability depends on the diagnosis, the tumour's location, previous treatment and the patient's general health.

Every procedure at AIROC Hospitals is planned after a careful review of the patient's imaging, pathology reports, organ function and overall treatment plan. The interventional radiologist works closely with medical oncologists, surgical oncologists, radiation oncologists, diagnostic radiologists, pathologists and supportive-care specialists, and complex cases are discussed in the multidisciplinary tumour board so that the procedure fits into the wider cancer strategy rather than standing apart from it.

Patients are given a clear explanation of what the procedure involves, why it is being recommended, what benefits are expected and what risks exist, before consent is taken. Preparation instructions, sedation arrangements and recovery expectations are explained in advance, and structured follow-up is arranged after every procedure.

Patients seeking interventional radiology procedures in Hyderabad can consult AIROC Hospitals, Kondapur, for image-guided biopsy, tumour-directed treatment, vascular access and symptom-relieving interventions delivered by an experienced team within a complete cancer-care setting.

Role of Interventional Radiology in Cancer Care

Interventional Radiology supports cancer care in four broad ways — establishing a diagnosis, providing treatment access, delivering tumour-directed therapy, and relieving cancer-related symptoms:

Image-Guided Biopsy

A biopsy is often the decisive step in cancer care. It confirms whether a suspicious lesion is cancerous, identifies the exact tumour type and grade, and provides tissue for the molecular and biomarker testing that increasingly guides targeted therapy and immunotherapy. During an image-guided biopsy, the interventional radiologist uses ultrasound or CT to direct a fine needle precisely into the abnormal tissue.

At AIROC Hospitals, Kondapur, image-guided biopsies are performed for lesions in the liver, lung, kidney, bone, lymph nodes, soft tissues, and the abdomen or pelvis, among other accessible sites. The safest route is planned in advance after reviewing the lesion's position in relation to major blood vessels, the airway, the bowel and other surrounding organs.

The procedure is usually performed under local anaesthesia, with sedation where required, and most patients go home the same day after a period of observation. Samples are sent immediately to pathology for detailed examination. As with any biopsy, small risks such as bleeding or infection exist, and these vary with the site; they are explained clearly before consent is taken
