Interventsiooniline

Interventsiooniline refers to a category of medical procedures that involve a minimally invasive approach to diagnosis or treatment. These interventions are typically performed using instruments inserted through small incisions or natural body openings, guided by imaging techniques such as X-ray, ultrasound, or CT scans. The primary goal of an interventional procedure is to achieve a therapeutic or diagnostic outcome with reduced patient trauma, shorter recovery times, and fewer complications compared to traditional open surgery.

Common interventional procedures encompass a wide range of specialties. In cardiology, interventional techniques like angioplasty and stenting are used to open blocked blood vessels. In radiology, interventional radiologists perform biopsies, drain fluid collections, and treat vascular abnormalities. Gastroenterology utilizes interventional endoscopy for procedures like stent placement and tumor removal. Interventional pain management involves injections to relieve chronic pain. The development and refinement of interventional techniques continue to expand their applications, offering less invasive alternatives for a growing number of medical conditions.
