Hepatobiliary Interventional Radiology
Minimally Invasive Imaged Guided Therapies.
Our recognized interventional radiologists within the department and the hospital have extensive experience and success using minimally invasive surgical techniques to treat patients with a wide variety of hepatobiliary disorders. These techniques are less invasive, therefore, recovery is faster with generally less discomfort and fewer associated complications.
