The Procedure
What is Nephrology & Urology Interventions?
Nephrology and Urology Interventions are minimally invasive, image-guided procedures designed to diagnose and treat disorders of the kidneys, ureters, and urinary tract. These procedures avoid open surgery, reduce patient discomfort, and enable faster recovery.
Using CT, ultrasound, or fluoroscopic guidance, catheters or needles are precisely guided to the affected area to treat blockages, stones, infections, or vascular complications in the kidneys and urinary system.
Conditions Treated
- Kidney stones (percutaneous nephrolithotomy)
- Ureteral obstruction or narrowing
- Hydronephrosis (fluid buildup in kidneys)
- Urinary tract tumors
- Hematuria (blood in urine) requiring intervention
- Renal vascular abnormalities
