Exploring Vascular Interventional Therapy: Minimally Invasive Treatments for Cancer and Vascular Disorders

Vascular interventional therapy is a treatment that employs minimally invasive techniques to deliver drugs, devices, or other substances to specific blood vessels or organs. It can be used to treat various diseases, such as cancer, vascular malformations, aneurysms, and bleeding. This therapy is usually performed by interventional radiologists, who use imaging guidance to insert catheters, wires, or needles through the skin and into the blood vessels or organs.

Two examples of vascular interventional therapy used to treat solid tumors, especially liver cancer, are arterial infusion chemotherapy and interventional embolization.
