        About the Department of Interventional Radiology at University Hospital Rechts der Isar Munich

        The Department of Interventional Radiology at the University Hospital Rechts der Isar Munich offers the full range of imaging examinations, as well as innovative image-guided minimally invasive techniques for the treatment of tumors, vascular diseases and internal pathologies (for example, CT, MRI, PET-CT, SPECT). The department's doctors have deep knowledge and colossal experience in the field of interventional radiological methods of treatment, which represent an excellent alternative to open surgical interventions. Despite the high level of technical equipment and the presence of advanced computerized systems, the focus is always on the person with his individual needs. Compliance with current clinical protocols and high professionalism of the department's specialists contribute to the successful clinical practice, as well as the reputability of the department among the best medical facilities of this kind in Germany. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Marcus Makowski.

        All modern imaging tests are available in the department to assess the state and function of the internal organs, various anatomical structures. Patients can undergo X-ray examinations, fluoroscopy, sonography, angiography, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. With the appropriate clinical indications, doctors conduct contrast-enhanced imaging tests. The innovative technical equipment meets all the requirements of radiation protection, therefore, during the examination, the patient receives a minimum dose of radiation that does not harm health.

        The department's service range includes not only diagnostic tests. The specialists of the medical facility also carry out a number of highly effective image-guided therapeutic interventional procedures. Particular attention is paid to the interventional treatment of benign and malignant tumors. Doctors perform ablation procedures to treat benign bone neoplasms (osteoid osteomas), malignant tumors of the liver and kidneys, metastases in these organs, radiofrequency ablation and irreversible electroporation for malignant tumors (most often, if there are contraindications to surgery), and tumor embolization. Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty is also successfully performed here to eliminate stenoses and obstructions in the blood vessels. In addition, patients with traumatic, degenerative and inflammatory musculoskeletal lesions can receive pain management in the department (local injections of anesthetic and anti-inflammatory drugs). Pain management is carried out under the guidance of ultrasound or CT, which ensures high safety and effectiveness of treatment.
