  • Title: Interventional radiology procedures: addressing the needs of the cardiovascular patient.
    Author: Ferrara S.
    Journal: Rev Cardiovasc Med; 2008; 9 Suppl 1():S35-43. PubMed ID: 18418316.
    Abstract:
    Interventional radiologists perform a wide range of procedures on virtually every organ system in the body. Technological advances continue to expand the repertoire of procedures in this field, challenging the frontiers of medical science and individual expertise. With cardiovascular disease being the number 1 cause of death in the United States and an aging population before us, physicians who perform minimally invasive procedures must be knowledgeable regarding unique aspects of cardiovascular management as it pertains to the catheterization laboratory. Specific areas addressed in this review include anesthesia, hypertension, and chronic kidney disease.
