At Mercy's Interventional Radiology Center, we are committed to excellence in diagnosing and treating vascular disease and in providing compassionate care to our patients.
Working in collaboration with community physicians and other providers, we are part of Mercy's Cardiovascular Center, which is dedicated to the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of vascular disease.
As a result of this close association, our patients benefit from an emphasis on treating the whole patient through a continuum of care and medical management of conditions such as diabetes, renal vascular disease, chronic wounds, and venous insufficiency.
Advantages of Interventional Radiology
Most procedures can be performed on an outpatient basis or require only a short hospital stay.
General anesthesia is not required.
Risk, pain, and recovery time are often significantly reduced compared to surgery.
