  • Low Back Pain

Lumbar disk herniation non-surgical treatment - DISC Nucleoplasty Percutaneous Discectomy  is a minimally-invasive Interventional Radiology procedure whereby the herniated disk decompression is performed percutaneously through a needle.

               http://www.spineuniverse.com/displayarticle.php/article2133.html

Epidural and facet spine steroid injections are minimally invasive Interventional Radiology procedures where small needles are used to perform anti-inflammatory medicine injections in the back to relieve pain and delay or avoid back surgery.

  • Cardiac Imaging

Non-Invasive CT imaging of the coronary arteries, a Radiology procedure, can replace conventional cardiac catheterization to look for coronary artery disease in most people.

Non-Invasive MR adenosine stress imaging, a Radiology procedure, is more sensitive for coronary artery disease than standard stress tests or thallium/nuclear stress tests.
