What Does an Interventional Radiologist Do?

An Interventional Radiologist is a physician who uses radiology imaging as a guide while performing minor surgical procedures with catheters, needles, and other small instruments. The duties and responsibilities include performing targeted and minimally invasive outpatient treatments such as stenting, biopsies, angioplasty, thrombolysis, and image-guided thermal ablation. As an Interventional Radiologist, you may work with such imaging technologies as ultrasound, CT, MRI, and X-ray. You can be called upon to treat serious medical conditions, including cancer, stroke, and vascular disease. Patients benefit from the low risk, minimal pain, and quick recovery time of typical procedures.

What is the difference between Interventional Radiologist vs Vascular Surgeon?

AspectInterventional RadiologistVascular Surgeon
CredentialsMedical degree, radiology residency, fellowship in interventional radiologyMedical degree, general surgery residency, vascular surgery fellowship
Work EnvironmentHospitals, outpatient clinics, imaging centersHospitals, surgical centers, clinics
ProceduresMinimally invasive image-guided proceduresOpen surgeries and minimally invasive procedures
Industry UsageCommonly involved in diagnostic and therapeutic interventions using imagingFocuses on surgical treatment of vascular diseases

Interventional Radiologists specialize in minimally invasive, image-guided procedures, often working in outpatient settings and hospitals. Vascular Surgeons perform open and minimally invasive surgeries to treat vascular conditions. Both roles require extensive training but differ mainly in their approach and procedures.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an Interventional Radiologist, and why are they important?

To thrive as an Interventional Radiologist, you need extensive medical training, board certification in radiology, and specialized fellowship experience in interventional procedures. Expertise with advanced imaging modalities (CT, MRI, fluoroscopy), minimally invasive surgical tools, and familiarity with radiation safety protocols are crucial. Strong problem-solving skills, precision, and effective communication set top professionals apart in this field. These abilities are essential for delivering safe, accurate, and patient-centered care during complex image-guided interventions.

What is an interventional radiologist?

An interventional radiologist is a medical doctor who specializes in performing minimally invasive procedures using imaging guidance, such as X-rays, CT scans, or ultrasounds. These specialists use small instruments and catheters to diagnose and treat a variety of conditions, often as an alternative to traditional surgery. Common procedures include angioplasty, stent placement, embolization, and biopsies. Interventional radiologists play a key role in managing diseases related to blood vessels, cancer, and other organ systems, helping patients recover faster with less pain and shorter hospital stays.

What are some typical challenges an Interventional Radiologist might face when coordinating with multidisciplinary teams?

Interventional Radiologists often collaborate with surgeons, oncologists, and referring physicians to plan and execute patient care. One common challenge is ensuring clear communication among all parties, particularly when discussing complex cases or urgent procedures. Balancing the schedules and priorities of multiple specialists can also be difficult, requiring strong organizational and interpersonal skills. Additionally, keeping up with advances in imaging technology and interventional techniques is essential for providing the best outcomes in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment.

Job description

Due to growth and alignment with institutional commitment to well-being of the faculty, the Section of Pediatric Interventional Radiology at Phoenix Children's is recruiting a full-time pediatric interventional radiologist.

The Section performs over 7500 image-guided procedures per year and is currently staffed by 4 dedicated pediatric interventional radiologists. IR physicians, inpatient/outpatient services, and clinics are supported by 5 IR APPs and a Care Navigator. We perform a vast array of interventions, including but not limited to vascular access, treatment of vascular malformations, hepatobiliary procedures, enteral procedures, musculoskeletal procedures, angiography, embolization, and DVT/PE lysis. Additionally, we have a dedicated pediatric neurointerventional radiologist. The Section has a long and rich history of sharing our clinical excellence with internal and external teaching. We participate in numerous multispecialty programs at Phoenix Children's, including a vascular anomalies clinic. Phoenix Children's has many centers of excellence, including the Heart Center, Center for Cancer & Blood Disorders, and Barrow Neurological Institute at Phoenix Children's. Additionally, we have active solid organ and bone marrow transplant programs.

The IR department currently includes two Philips DSA rooms (one with biplane), dedicated ultrasound in each room, an IR-only pre-procedure area, and a consult room. Expansion with an additional biplane DSA room is expected in 2027. There is a separate minor procedures room that is equipped to handle low-complexity procedures. Subspecialized pediatric anesthesiologists provide anesthesia services. There is a strong working relationship between the IR nurses, technologists, and physicians.

The Division of Radiology consists of 31 full-time radiologists subspecialized into Body, Neuro and IR sections. Participation in research is encouraged and supported by a radiation physicist/imaging scientist and a dedicated research coordinator. Radiology faculty are eligible to hold appointments to the University of Arizona College of Medicine (Phoenix), Mayo Clinic, and Creighton University School of Medicine (Phoenix). An active program of teaching and research includes 3 ACGME-accredited Pediatric Radiology fellow positions, 2 additional non-accredited fellow positions (Neuro and PIR) as well as fellows, residents, and medical students from affiliated radiology programs.

Phoenix Children's main campus is a freestanding 533-bed Level 1 children's hospital and is the largest pediatric facility in the Southwest USA.

Minimum requirements:

* MD or DO degree, or equivalent

* Completion of an ACGME-accredited diagnostic or interventional radiology residency

* Completion of ACGME-accredited Pediatric Radiology or Adult Interventional Radiology fellowship (if completed diagnostic radiology residency)

* Completion of a Pediatric Interventional Radiology fellowship (ideal, but negotiable - the last hire completed an ACGME IR/DR residency with no supplemental fellowship)
