About the department

The Department of Interventional Radiology at the University Hospital Carl Gustav Carus Dresden provides the full range of modern imaging examinations and therapeutic image-guided interventional procedures. The department has state-of-the-art equipment: ultrasound systems, classical X-ray systems, devices for angiography, mammography, CT, MRI, PET-CT, PET-MRI, etc. The advanced equipment serves not only for diagnostics, but also for preoperative planning and other types of therapy. The department specializes in minimally invasive image-guided procedures for the targeted treatment of tumors and vascular diseases, as well as for pain management. The department received the prestigious certificate of the German Society for Interventional Radiology and Minimally Invasive Therapy (DeGIR) for the outstanding quality of interventional treatment. It is very important for the department's doctors to provide each patient with individual medical care with a focus on a humane attitude and understanding of his needs. The Head Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Ralf-Thorsten Hoffmann.

The diagnostic options of the medical facility include computed tomography (used to diagnose tumors or their metastases, assess the progression of malignant diseases, search for foci of infectious diseases, study the severity of injuries in accidents, diagnose acute stroke or acute cerebral hemorrhage; CT-guided biopsy and interventional pain management are also carried out), magnetic resonance imaging (performed for imaging diagnostics of the internal organs, tissues and joints), conventional X-ray (used for imaging diagnostics of almost all areas of the human body), angiography and phlebography (these tests are an invasive method for examining blood vessels by introducing contrast medium through a catheter; CT angiography, MRI angiography and digital subtraction angiography are also available), as well as mammography for the diagnostics of breast diseases. It should be noted that the department has an advanced picture archiving and communication system, which provides doctors with instant access to all medical reports and images. External examinations, the results of which are recorded on CD or DVD discs, can be easily imported into the database. This makes it possible to further compare the current and previously performed images in dynamics.

The department's options in image-guided therapeutic interventional procedures are also quite extensive. The department's specialists successfully perform facet joint block and periradicular therapy to relieve back pain, radiofrequency ablation and thermal ablation to destroy tumors, vertebroplasty to treat vertebral compression fractures, uterine fibroid embolization, transarterial chemoembolization and selective internal radiation therapy for liver cancer and metastasis. A special place in the department's clinical practice is given to the interventional treatment of vascular pathologies: doctors specialize in balloon dilation, vascular stent implantation, thrombolysis, embolization and other procedures. All interventions are planned and performed in collaboration with experienced vascular surgeons. When performing any therapeutic manipulation, the specialists strictly adhere to clinical protocols and take care of the maximum safety of medical manipulations.

The department's range of medical services includes:

  • Diagnostic options
    • Computed tomography (CT)
    • Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
    • Conventional X-ray
    • Angiography and phlebography
    • Mammography
  • Therapeutic options
    • Facet joint block (treatment of pain due to degeneration of the small joints of the spine or iliac joints) and periradicular therapy (treatment method for back pain caused by nerve root lesion)
    • Biopsy and drainage 
    • Radiofrequency ablation (for liver tumors and liver metastases, as well as for tumors of the lungs, kidneys, osteoid osteomas, benign bone tumors, etc.)
    • Vertebroplasty (reconstruction of the vertebral bodies using special cement)
    • Vascular interventions (interventional treatment of vascular diseases, vascular embolization in case of bleeding and tumors)
    • Uterine fibroid embolization
    • Transarterial chemoembolization for liver cancer
    • Selective internal radiation therapy (used for the treatment of liver tumors, such as liver cancer and liver metastases, for which surgery or chemotherapy is contraindicated)
    • EndoAVF treatment method for arteriovenous fistulas
  • Other types of diagnostics and treatment
