Interventional Radiology

Interventional radiology is progressing rapidly, driven by demographic shifts and the rising prevalence of chronic diseases. As a minimally invasive approach, it relies heavily on indirect information: live-streamed acquisition images supported by additional images and patient data. Diagnostic and healthcare IT imaging solutions make the clinical workflow easier and improve the ability to offer patients better and safer curative treatments.

Precision work supported by multiple image sources

Interventional radiology is precision work. Without a variety of image and information sources, radiologists lack the data they need to make decisions and guide the procedure. These solutions provide access to images and patient data, allowing procedures to be planned and performed with greater confidence.

Interventional procedure management system

A dedicated interventional radiology management system follows the entire procedure workflow, from vascular to endovascular interventions. The system is integrated with warehouse management, and embedded artificial intelligence makes advanced features available in a simple way.

Procedure planning and multimodality imaging

• Dedicated software for endoprosthesis implantation planning, enabling simulation of the procedure from CT images together with all measurements required by the prosthesis manufacturer.
• A multimodality imaging approach that combines the strengths of each modality within a single diagnostic and interventional workflow.
• The ability to save acquired measurements and reuse them.
• G-scan Brio MRI for weight-bearing examinations and Qspine analysis.

Clinical application areas

• Urology - biopsies remain the gold standard for the final characterization of suspicious lesions in prostate cancer and, in most cases, are performed under ultrasound guidance.
• Neuroimaging - MRI provides useful clinical information across a variety of conditions related to the brain and the nervous system and allows trauma to be evaluated effectively.

Technologies supporting interventional radiology

• Ultrasound - ultrasound systems covering multiple clinical applications and supporting precise procedure guidance.
• Magnetic Resonance - advanced MRI systems, technologies, and solutions that support patient care.
• Healthcare IT - software for managing the diagnostic process workflow across the widest enterprise IT networks, designed to improve diagnostic sensitivity.
