Abstract:
Interventional radiology has lot of advantages in dealing with various emergencies. The technique is minimally-invasive,highly-effective and immediately-efficient,moreover,it integrates the diagnosis with the therapy perfectly. Besides,the interventional techniques applied in emergency medicine include not only the vascular interventions,such as embolization,embolectomy,etc,but also the nonvascular interventions,such as tracheal stent implantation,percutaneous vertebroplasty and so forth. However,importance has not been attached to the clinical use of interventional therapy in emergency medicine so far. It is imperative for us to promote the acceptance of interventional therapy in emergency medicine as well as to popularize the technique in clinical practice.
