Foreword
I am honored to have been asked to contribute a few words regarding this fi rst edition of
Women’s Health in Interventional Radiology . Having spent much of my professional
energy for the past decade in interventional practice in Women’s Health, I am pleased that
a comprehensive guide to the fi eld is now available, and reviewing it has been a pleasure.
What struck me fi rst about this text is the breadth of topics that are addressed. It focuses
not just on interventions in the female reproductive tract, but on all the major interventions
that have a major impact on Women’s Health. The inclusion of lower extremity venous
insuffi ciency and osteoporotic spinal compression fractures is in recognition of the dispro-
portionate impact that these pathologies have on women and their quality of life. In turn,
women are the primary benefi ciaries of recent advances in interventional therapies for
those conditions. As a result, this book provides the means for those already practicing in
women’s intervention to increase their knowledge in those procedures in which they are
already active and the opportunity to broaden their scope of care to new procedures. This
book is ideal for those who would like to dedicate themselves to high quality of Women’s
Health at all stages of life.
Dr. Venbrux and Dr. Ignacio have long been active in the fi eld of women’s interven-
tions, and they have assembled a similarly dedicated group of authors. Their commitment
to excellence comes through on every page. I congratulate them on an outstanding new
contribution to our fi eld, one that I hope will advance our knowledge but also our commit-
ment to ensuring the best case outcome for those we are privileged to treat.

In the last 20 years, national and international interest has become increasingly focused on
Women’s Health. Throughout the world, this important health care discipline has tradition-
ally been underserved and specifi c conditions undertreated. The National Women Health
Network (1975), the Women’s Health Initiative of the National Institutes of Health (1991),
and the Global Alliance for Women’s Health of the United Nations (1994) are a few exam-
ples of the many comprehensive efforts to increase education, advocacy, research, and
resources for Women’s Health issues.
Interventional Radiology, a medical fi eld known for its creativity and innovation in
procedural patient care, continues to deliver inventive and resourceful methods for caring
for women in all stages of life. In the average Interventional Radiology practice, Women’s
Health may represent a signifi cant component branch of the practice. Furthermore, the
contemporary Interventional Radiologist, assuming more clinical responsibility than his or
her predecessors, now has offi ce hours, admissions, and follow-up management protocols
that are standard and an integral part of daily patient care operations. As we face a chal-
lenging and demanding fi eld with a rapidly expanding body of scientifi c knowledge, par-
ticularly in the area of Women’s Health, it is important to provide texts that present a clear,
concise, and timely overview of the subject matter.
This book will highlight those Interventional Radiology procedures most pertinent to
Women’s Health. The authors have labored to cover the sections completely, providing a
detailed discussion of pathophysiology, techniques, clinical notes, and a broad review of
the literature. Additionally, the authors have distilled information into a concise format so
that the actual book has portability.
We hope this book can be a working text, on hand for the Interventional Radiologist in
the offi ce or as he or she makes rounds in the hospital. We trust that our readers will fi nd
this manual of practical assistance in the work-up, procedural treatment, and management
of patients. If this book meets the educational goals of the reader, then the time, energy, and
effort expended in its preparation will be justifi ed.
We wish to express our gratitude to our talented and experienced colleagues who con-
tributed to this book. They are a constant source of inspiration and motivation, and we are
appreciative of their dedication and concerted efforts.
