Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Interventional Radiology (IR) boundaries are expanding year by year with new fields of application and technical developments. Nowadays, many emergency, oncology, and vascular diseases are handled with mini-invasive approaches, both in peripheral and neurological environments; this is related to high clinical values of the procedures associated with low complications and hospital stay, ending in favourable cost-effective ratios.
This Special Issue on new developments in the field of IR aims to focus especially on embolizations (emergency and elective settings), oncological treatments and thromboaspirations interventions, running from diagnostic pathways to technical aspects of the procedures and clinical evaluations.
Also, new devices and new applications of already existing devices will be of particular interest.
Dr. Francesco Giurazza
Guest Editor
