Minimally Invasive Therapeutic Procedures

BIDMC interventional radiologists performing a procedure — Dr. Sahil Mehta and Dr. Muneeb Ahmed (L to R).

The Division of Vascular and Interventional Radiology (IR) at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center specializes in treating a wide range of medical conditions through the use of minimally invasive diagnostic and therapeutic procedures using advanced imaging such as fluoroscopy, CT, ultrasound, and MRI. These procedures often involve lower risk, less pain, and a shorter recovery time than open surgeries. Our interventional radiologists are global leaders in the field, have set new clinical standards, such as for prostate artery embolization, and have been recognized for outstanding care, medical education, and research.

We are also dedicated to training the next generation of interventional radiologists through our comprehensive residencies and observership program.

To schedule a consultation, email BIDMC Interventional Radiology or call 617-754-2523.
