Why minimally invasive IR?
Interventional radiology uses imaging — such as ultrasound, X-ray, CT, or MRI — to guide tiny instruments through small access points in the body. For many conditions, this can provide an alternative to open surgery with less disruption and a shorter recovery for appropriate candidates.
At Beacon IR Clinic, our specialists evaluate each patient individually and explain options clearly, so you understand what to expect before making a decision.

Quick answers before you book
Am I a candidate for an IR procedure?
Candidacy depends on your specific condition, imaging, and goals. A Beacon IR Clinic physician will review your history and explain whether a procedure may be appropriate.
Is this covered by insurance?
Coverage depends on your insurance plan and the specific procedure. Our team can help you understand what to ask your insurance provider.
How long is recovery?
Recovery varies by procedure and by patient. Many minimally invasive treatments allow patients to return home the same day, with light activity within days.
Is this an alternative to surgery?
For appropriate candidates, many IR procedures can be considered as alternatives to traditional surgery. Whether it is right for you depends on a physician evaluation.
Can I start with a virtual consultation?
Yes. Virtual consultations are available, including for out-of-state patients who want to discuss whether a procedure may be a good fit before traveling.
