How Can Interventional Radiology (IR) Target Cancer Tumors Directly? - Nursing Knowledge Exchange

Описание: How Can Interventional Radiology (IR) Target Cancer Tumors Directly? Are you curious about how modern medicine targets cancer tumors with precision and less invasive techniques? In this video, we’ll explore the role of interventional radiology (IR) in cancer treatment. We’ll start by explaining what interventional radiology is and how it uses advanced imaging technologies to guide treatment instruments directly to the tumor. You’ll learn about different IR procedures, including ablation techniques like radiofrequency, microwave, and cryoablation, which destroy cancer cells using heat or cold. We’ll also cover embolization therapies such as chemoembolization and radioembolization, which block or treat the blood vessels feeding the tumor, delivering targeted therapy from inside the body. Additionally, the video discusses how IR is used for diagnostic biopsies, providing minimally invasive options for tissue sampling that help confirm diagnoses and guide further treatment. For nurses and healthcare professionals, understanding these techniques is essential for patient preparation, care, and monitoring for potential complications. These treatments often lead to faster recovery times and less discomfort for patients. Join us to learn how interventional radiology offers effective, targeted options for cancer care, and discover the important role nurses play in supporting patients through these procedures.
