Abstract:
:In summary, interventional techniques are well-established and offer safe and effective alternatives for management of patients in the intensive care unit or other setting. It is likely that the radiologist will become more involved in the management of ill children and adults. It is hoped that this will reduce the need for opened surgical procedures, reduce the complexity of surgery, and provide treatment options for complications.
