Interventional Oncology

Interventional Oncology

Interventional oncology provides a variety of patient-centered services. We collaborate actively with our colleagues in medical, surgical and radiation oncology in tumor boards and at the Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center to develop personalized treatment plans for our patients.

Interventional Oncology is the performance of image-guided, minimally-invasive techniques by trained experts. Most procedures are either outpatient or require an overnight stay in the hospital with minimal recovery time. There are several broad categories of procedures, including: Intra-arterial Therapies, Ablative Therapies, Pain Palliation, and Neoadjuvant (Pre-operative) Procedures.
