Department of Adult and Pediatric Diagnostic Radiology, Interventional Radiology and Neuroradiology
Specialized in: adult and pediatric diagnostic radiology, interventional radiology and neuroradiology About the Department of Adult and Pediatric Diagnostic Radiology, Interventional Radiology and Neuroradiology at University Hospital Duesseldorf
The Department of Adult and Pediatric Diagnostic Radiology, Interventional Radiology and Neuroradiology at the University Hospital Duesseldorf offers the full range of modern radiological examinations and minimally invasive imaging-guided treatment of various diseases. Most often, radiologists have to deal with the diagnostics and therapy of tumors, inflammatory processes, injuries, pathologies of the heart and vascular diseases. The combination of advanced medical technologies and high professionalism of the doctors working in the department are the key to the successful treatment results.The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Gerald Antoch.
The department is an academic medical institution, therefore, a certain part of its time is devotes to research activities, which give excellent results of international importance. The department has various specialized work groups, which activities are focused on the MRI examinations, interventional procedures, hybrid imaging, neuroradiology and gynecological radiology.
