      abstract = {This book is a concise introduction to the field of  interventional radiology (IR), designed to help medical  students and residents understand the fundamental concepts  related to image-guided interventional procedures and  determine the appropriate use of imaging modalities in the  treatment of various disorders. It covers the history of  interventional radiology; radiation safety; equipment;  medications; and techniques such as biopsy and drainage,  vascular access, embolization, and tumor ablation. The book  also describes the indications, patient preparation,  post-procedure care, and complications for the most common  interventional radiology procedures. This second edition is  fully updated throughout with the latest guidelines and  recommendations. Specific updates include: the role of IR  outpatient clinics and patient-centered care, prostatic  artery embolization, Y90 embolization, embolization for  joint disease, the role artificial intelligence plays in  IR, and a new chapter on structured reporting in IR.  Designed for students and trainees, chapters include key  points or "tips and tricks" and review questions. This is  an ideal guide for medical students and trainees interested  in pursuing interventional radiology.},
