Interventional Radiology at The Medical Group of New Jersey
Minimally Invasive, Image-Guided Treatment with Faster Recovery
Overview
Interventional radiology (IR) combines advanced imaging with minimally invasive procedures to diagnose and treat a wide range of medical conditions, often without the need for surgery. Using real-time guidance from ultrasound, CT, MRI, and fluoroscopy, interventional radiologists treat disease from inside the body using tiny catheters, needles, and devices.
At The Medical Group of New Jersey, our interventional radiology team partners closely with vascular surgery, oncology, gynecology, nephrology, gastroenterology, pain management, and primary care to deliver precise, targeted treatments with shorter recovery times and fewer complications.

Top Conditions & Procedures We Treat
Below are the most common conditions our interventional radiology team manages. Each condition is supported by a structured Clinical Patient Journey, outlining symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up care.
Narrowing of the leg arteries can reduce blood flow and cause leg pain, slow-healing wounds, or serious circulation problems. Interventional radiology uses minimally invasive procedures to improve blood flow and relieve symptoms.
Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE)
A non-surgical treatment for women with uterine fibroids that helps reduce heavy bleeding and pelvic pressure while preserving the uterus. UFE usually allows for a faster recovery than surgery.
A focused cancer treatment that uses heat or cold to destroy tumors in organs such as the liver, kidney, or lung. It is often used when surgery is not an option.
Chemoembolization & Radioembolization
Liver-focused cancer treatments that deliver chemotherapy or radiation directly to tumors. This approach targets cancer cells while limiting damage to healthy tissue.
Minimally invasive treatments that improve blood flow in leg veins and reduce pain, swelling, skin changes, and venous ulcers.
Procedures that help keep dialysis fistulas and grafts working properly. Timely treatment helps prevent dialysis delays and complications.
Minimally invasive procedures that use imaging to safely collect tissue samples. Biopsies help diagnose cancer, infection, or inflammation with little recovery time.
Procedures that treat painful spinal fractures by stabilizing the bones and reducing pain. Many patients are able to move more comfortably afterward.
A minimally invasive option for treating internal hemorrhoids by reducing their blood supply. This can relieve bleeding and discomfort without surgery.
Image-guided treatments that drain infected fluid or blockages. These procedures often provide fast relief and help prevent further complications.
Our Multidisciplinary Approach
Interventional radiology is inherently collaborative. Our specialists work closely with vascular surgery (for peripheral vascular disease), oncology (for tumor ablation and chemoembolization), gynecology (for uterine fibroid embolization), nephrology (for dialysis access maintenance), gastroenterology (for biliary drainage and emborrhoid procedures), and pain management (for vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty). This integrated care model ensures that every patient receives a comprehensive treatment plan tailored to their specific condition and overall health goals.
