[What does the neurologist expect from interventional neuroradiology?].

Abstract

The methods of interventional radiology require interdisciplinary cooperation. For bioptic methods also a cooperative formulation of the diagnosis is important, while for the occlusion or dilatation of vessels the whole proceeding necessarily is cooperative. The pathophysiologic processes in partial or total ischaemia of the central nervous system can be treated only by a complex periinterventional therapy program carried out by an experienced neurologic intensive care team.
