Interventional radiology (IR) is a diverse and innovative specialty that provides a wide variety of imaging-guided minimally invasive procedures for treating patients. The fundamental importance of IR in health care is illustrated by IR ’s recognition as a primary medical specialty in 2012 by the American Board of Medical Specialties. Although IR is a relatively new specialty, the breadth of knowledge needed in the field and the complexity of IR can be daunting, especially for those newly introduced to the field.
