Interventional radiologists possess unique expertise in diagnosing and treating vein problems by using sophisticated tools to navigate the body’s veins and arteries. Their work within the vascular system relies heavily on precise imaging techniques.

Unlike many surgeons, interventional radiologists are highly trained in both radiology and minimally invasive procedures. These board-certified specialists utilize imaging methods such as MRI, fluoroscopy, ultrasound, and CT scans to guide a variety of treatments, ranging from addressing varicose veins to tackling tumors.

Imaging is vital for both diagnosing and treating vein issues. Dr. Arash Padidar explains that varicose veins, which many people recognize as visible veins above or below the knee, can cause several symptoms. These symptoms include leg heaviness, swelling, fatigue, and pain that worsen with standing or walking, as well as bleeding or skin changes that can lead to venous ulcers. These signs may indicate a more serious condition, underscoring the importance of accurate and timely diagnosis.
