Pain Management in Interventional Radiology

Pain management in interventional radiology involves techniques to minimize discomfort during procedures that use imaging to guide treatments. This can include the use of local anesthesia, sedatives, or pain relief medications to ensure patients are comfortable and relaxed. The goal is to reduce pain while accurately targeting the treatment area, whether it's for tumors, blockages, or other conditions. After the procedure, ongoing pain management may involve medications or follow-up care to help patients recover comfortably. Effective pain management is crucial for patient satisfaction and successful outcomes in these minimally invasive procedures.
