41.1 Introduction
As equipment quality and technology advances, interventional radiology (IR) offers clinicians a growing number of procedure options. Diagnostic (Table41.1) and therapeutic (Table41.2) proce­dures are performed in a minimally invasive fash­ion. Compared to conventional surgery, IR procedures guide treatment through less invasive methods. As IR procedures are minimally inva­sive generally, they do not require an inpatient hospital stay. Due to the lack of large incisions, procedures result in fewer side effects and shorter recovery time. Using imaging methods, such as uoroscopy, ultrasonography, computed tomog­raphy, and magnetic resonance imaging in IR pro­cedures provide accurate diagnosis and/or treatment. Local anesthesia is the most commonly used anesthesia method in IR procedures provid­ing a lower incidence of anesthesia-related com­plications. General anesthesia is rarely required.
IR procedures are divided into two main groups: vascular and nonvascular, comprised of both diagnostic and therapeutic interventions.
The most common vascular interventional radiological procedure is diagnostic angiography. Therapeutic vascular interventional procedures

Pulmonary thromboembolism caused by deep vein thrombosis can be prevented by placing retractable metallic lters in the inferior vena cava.
Chemoembolization and radioembolization are unique embolization processes tailored to can­cer patients. In chemoembolization, following the selective catheterization of the feeding artery, chemotherapeutics and embolization agents are injected. In radioembolization, the same proce­dure is performed with the injection of agents with attached radioactive isotopes. These proce­dures are usually used to treat liver tumors.

It is vital to provide vascular access when con­tinuous or intermittent medication is required (such as chemotherapy) or when a high blood exchange volume is required (such as dialysis). Vascular access is provided by inserting a port catheter for cancer patients and hemodialysis cath­eters for end-stage renal disease patients. Imaging guidance not only improves the success rate, but also reduces complications of these procedures.
The second leading group of interventional radiological procedures is nonvascular proce­dures. The diagnostic nonvascular interventional radiological procedure is an imaging-guided biopsy. A biopsy removes tissue or uid samples from target organs, such as the thyroid, prostate, liver, pancreas, lung, kidney, or tumors, located in other organs. Imaging methods, such as ultra­sound, computed tomography (CT), or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), are used as guidance. A biopsy is a procedure that is carried out to
reach a denitive diagnosis in many diseases. Therefore, it is of great importance in the diagno­sis and future management of neoplasia-related diseases.
Therapeutic nonvascular interventional radio­logical procedures include tumor ablative proce­dures, such as radiofrequency (RF) or microwave ablation, abscess and cyst drainage, catheteriza­tion of kidney, gallbladder, bile ducts, etc.
Ablative procedures are treatments that utilize image guidance to place a needle into a target tis­sue such as a tumor, which will deliver the abla­tive effect. Electrical currents are most commonly passed through an electrode in the needle to cre­ate a region of heat that destroys tumor cells. This method is often used, especially in the treatment of liver tumors. However, it is a method that can potentially be used in many tumors.
Hereditary cancer syndromes are character­ized by early-stage tumors that account for 3–20% of all cancers [1]. The management of these syndromes is carried out in a multidisci­plinary fashion. IR can contribute signicantly to the management of patients with hereditary can­cer syndrome in diagnostic, therapeutic, and pal­liative procedures. The imaging methods recommended for screening of these syndromes will be discussed in the next chapter.
In the present chapter, standard interventional procedures used for managing cancer will be dis­cussed. First, an overview of percutaneous biopsy methods will be presented, followed by therapeu­tic interventional procedures used as an alterna­tive to conventional surgical methods in treating malignancies and palliative interventional proce­dures applied in oncology patients.
41.2 Percutaneous Biopsy
Percutaneous biopsy is a commonly used inter­ventional procedure for obtaining tissue samples. Using medical imaging for guidance allows cor­rect localization of the needle and targeted tumor [24]. Image-guided percutaneous biopsy is less invasive and less expensive than surgical methods.

The most typical indication of percutaneous biopsy is the diagnosis of malignancies, such as a primary tumor, tumor staging, metastatic dis­ease, and posttreatment recurrence. Other indi­cations include establishing the diffuse parenchymal disease’s nature, obtaining material for microbiological analyses in suspected or known infections, and providing molecular anal­ysis material [57].
Relative contraindications of percutaneous biopsy include coagulopathy, patient inability to cooperate, signicant comorbidities, and preg­nancy. These conditions increase the risk of com­plications; therefore, they should be corrected [5]. Absolute contraindications, which are rare, are as follows: lack of safe access, refusal of con­sent, and noncorrectable coagulopathy [7].
There are two types of needle biopsy: core­needle biopsy and ne-needle aspiration (FNA). They differ in the amount of tissue acquired. FNA provides a smaller tissue sample than core­needle biopsies.
Needle selection depends on the suspected pathology and the experience of the operator. A wide variety of needles are available for percuta­neous biopsy. Needles can be classied accord-
ing to diameter or gauge, length, tip conguration, and sampling mechanism [5].
Smaller-gauge needles (20–25 gauges) pro­vide sufcient cytological material and often suf­cient histological material. When multiple punctures are required, they can be used safely. They also reduce bleeding risk and complications while reaching the target lesion. It is easier to reach the lesion with larger-gauge needles (14– 20 gauges). They generally provide a better sam­ple for cytology and histology with fewer punctures—however, the risk of bleeding increases as needle diameter increases [
8, 9].
Needle tips are classied as the non-cutting type used for aspiration and the cutting type used for core biopsy. Aspiration needles are the most frequently used biopsy needles. They are designed to provide samples primarily for cytologic analy­sis. Core biopsy needles (14–20 gauge) are larger in diameter and are used to obtain tissue samples (0.1–0.4mm and below) for histological analysis rather than cytologic analysis [10].
Medical imaging methods, such as ultra­sound, CT, and MRI, and uoroscopy allow sampling of difcult-to-reach small lesions safely (Figs.41.1 and 41.2) [11].

Image-guided tumor ablations (IGTA) induce tumor cell death. Various energy sources, includ­ing RF energy, microwave, irreversible electro­poration (IRE), and cryoablation, are used for IGTA.IGTA can be used to treat many types of cancer, including lung, liver, kidney, prostate, breast, and bone cancer [1217].
Chemical ablation is an ablative method that causes protein denaturation and cell death by injecting ethanol and acetic acid into tumor cells. US-guided percutaneous ethanol injection can be used as an alternative procedure in managing pri­mary hyperparathyroidism caused by parathyroid adenoma and parathyroid hyperplasia in patients with increased surgical risk and patients with a previous history of neck surgery [18].
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is an ablative procedure designed to destroy the tumor by heat­ing (Fig.41.3). The conversion of radiofrequency waves into heat is the mechanism of RFA.RFA increases the local tissue temperature, which causes tumor cell death. RFA can be used to treat both primary tumors and metastases. RFA is use­ful in the treatment of patients with lung, liver, kidney, and bone cancers. It is feasible and safe in unresectable pancreatic cancer and cholangiocar­cinoma [19, 20]. It can be used in combination with chemotherapy in the treatment of hepatocel­lular carcinoma. Also, RFA is an efcient alterna-
painful bone metastases [21].
Microwave ablation uses energy also within the radiofrequency spectrum that causes polar molecule oscillation in tissue and heats faster than RFA. As a result, coagulation necrosis develops in tumor tissue. It is a well-established procedure for treating many benign and malig­nant tumors and lesions [22].
Cryoablation is a treatment that uses low tem­peratures to destroy tumor cells. In cryoablation, tumor tissue is frozen with temperatures reaching
20°C, and cell deaths occur. It can treat several malignancies, including prostate, bone, kidney, and breast cancers [15, 23, 24].
IRE is an ablative procedure using nonthermal energy (electrical eld) to create innumerable per­manent and lethal nanopores in the cell membrane to destroy cellular homeostasis that induces apop­tosis. This method does not cause necrosis as in all other ablation procedures which induce necro­sis by heat or radiation. It is preferred, especially in regions where extracellular matrix, blood ow, and nerves are desired to be protected [25]. IRE can be safely performed in patients with tumors of the liver, pancreas, lung, and kidney [2629].
Other ablative methods include high- intensity­focused ultrasound and laser ablation. High­intensity- focused ultrasound is a technique that uses ultrasonic waves to heat tissue [30, 31].

tumors. It may also be used to treat uterine broids, aneurysms, and other conditions [
Most chemotherapy is administered through a peripheral/central vein that circulates the whole body causing systemic effects in reaching the tar­get tumor. With some tumors, a more targeted and higher dose of chemotherapy could be applied by selectively catheterizing the feeding artery(ies) of the tumor and injecting medication directly without the cost of systemic side effects. This method is called intra-arterial chemotherapy [32, 33].
Transarterial embolization (TAE) is a proce­dure in which cell death occurs by occlusion of the artery feeding the tumor with embolization materials (gelatin sponges, beads, microparticle, alcohol, glue). TAE is used to treat unresectable liver cancer, kidney cancer, and neuroendocrine
Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is a procedure in which chemotherapy and embolic agents are injected into a blood vessel feeding the tumor to occlude the tumor’s blood supply and trap the chemotherapy within the tumor for enhanced potency [ formed in patients with asymptomatic, multifo­cal, or large HCC without extrahepatic metastasis or vascular invasion [35]. The combined use of RF or microwave ablation plus TACE effectively treats patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (Fig. 41.4). This approach may provide better survival results than monotherapy [36].

Beads loaded with Y-90 occlude blood vessels feeding the tumor and deliver a high dose of radiation to the tumor while sparing the normal tissue. Radioembolization can be performed as radiation segmentectomy and radiation lobectomy. Radiation lobectomy aims to induce nondiseased lobe’s growth to provide an adequate liver function to allow surgical resection [37]. Portal vein embolization (occluding the portal vein with embolization agents) also can be applied to induce hypertrophy of the nondiseased lobe [38].

41.5 Palliative Interventional
Procedures
Cancer-related pain can be alleviated by inter­ventional procedures in patients unresponsive to or unable to tolerate systemic opioids. The quality of life is improved through pain allevia­tion (Fig. 41.5). Interventional procedures include neuraxial analgesia (by epidural and intrathecal routes), vertebroplasty, kyphoplasty, RFA, and cryoablation for vertebral pain, sym­pathetic blocks for abdominal cancer-related pain (celiac plexus block and superior hypogas­tric plexus block), and peripheral nerve blocks

41.6 Diseases Treated withInterventional Procedures
41.6.1 Thyroid Cancer
Some studies show the clinical efcacy and safety of ablative procedures in nodule-volume reduction, improvement in symptoms, and cos­metic appearance [40]. There is not sufcient sci­entic evidence on its effectiveness in the treatment of thyroid carcinomas.

41.6.3 Breast Cancer
RFA is an interventional procedure in small, solitary, localized breast cancer. However, no studies have been conducted to directly com­pare RFA to the current surgical resection stan­dard [42].
41.6.4 Lung Cancer
Lung metastases and inoperable primary lung cancers can be treated with ablative methods. It is an option for selected cases that are not suit­able for surgery or radiation therapy because of their general health or the tumor’s size/location [43, 44].

41.6.6 Pancreatic Cancer
Patients with inoperable or borderline resectable, locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma can be treated with IRE [46].
41.6.7 Kidney Cancer
Primary kidney cancers can be treated with abla­tive procedures. Treatment success is similar to partial nephrectomy [47]. The TAE method reduces the size of benign kidney tumors such as angiomyolipoma and minimizes rupture and bleeding risks [48].
41.6.8 Adrenal Gland Tumors
Treatment of hemorrhagic adrenal tumors with presurgical embolization methods provides stabilization of patients for elective surgery [49]. Embolization procedures can also reduce the tumor burden, minimize bleeding risk before surgery, and alleviate cancer-related pain [50].
41.6.9 Prostate Cancer
Transarterial chemoembolization is a new, safe, and effective procedure for inoperable prostate cancer. Prostate cancers can be treated with abla­tive techniques and IRE [51, 52].
41.6.10 Bone Cancer
Bone metastases (spine, pelvis, long bones) can be treated with ablative methods with or without vertebroplasty. These procedures can be curative in benign pathologies, such as osteoid osteoma, and palliative in malignant cases, such as bone metastasis pain. Embolization methods can also be used to reduce the risk of bleeding before sur­gery [53].
41.7 Conclusion
IO is essential in managing patients with heredi­tary cancer syndrome, diagnosing and treating the malignancy or related complications, and pal­liation. Also, it provides new treatment possibili­ties for patients with hereditary cancer syndrome and can be combined with conventional onco­logical therapies. Moreover, it can reduce the need for conventional surgery and allow physi­cians to provide precision cancer treatment. It has great therapeutic potential. As a result, physi­cians involved in the management of oncological patients should know interventional procedures.
