There is a wide range of liver and biliary interventional procedures, both diagnostic and therapeutic, most commonly using CT-guidance or ultrasound-guidance.
Percutaneous transhepatic biliary interventions
- percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC)
- percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD)
- percutaneous cholecystostomy (PC)
Vascular Interventions
Percutaneous liver biopsy
Percutaneous collections drainage
Interventional oncologic therapeutic procedures
-
transarterial tumor embolization: method that promotes tumor destruction through a combination of embolization of its suppliers vessels, often combined with locoregional chemotherapy
- bland embolization
- transarterial chemoembolization (TACE)
- transarterial chemoembolization with drug-eluting beads (DEB-TACE)
- hepatic radioembolization
-

- radiofrequency ablation (RFA)
- microwave ablation
- cryoablation
- irreversible electroporation
- thermal ablation techniques
