What is ACR Interventional Radiology?

ACR Interventional Radiology refers to the practice of minimally invasive, image-guided procedures performed by radiologists who are certified by the American College of Radiology (ACR). Interventional radiologists use imaging modalities such as X-rays, MRI, and CT scans to guide instruments through the body, often as an alternative to open surgery. These procedures can diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions, including vascular diseases, cancer, and organ problems. The field is known for offering patients less pain, shorter recovery times, and lower risk compared to traditional surgery.
