“…Interventional Radiology (IR), a diagnostic and treatment technique using fluoroscopy, was proposed by Margulis [1], and Wallace reported its application to the diagnosis and treatment of patients with neoplastic diseases [2]. Recent advances in X-ray-fluoroscopyunit performance and the development of new tools and devices mean that the applicatory range of IR is now expanding to many body parts, such as those addressed in cardiovascular and cerebrovascular fields.…”

With the International Commission on Radiological Protection’s (ICRP) reduction in the radiation dose threshold for cataracts, evaluating and preventing radiation exposure to the lens of the eye among interventional radiology (IR) staff have become urgent tasks. In this study, we focused on differences in lens-equivalent dose (HT Lens) to which IR nurses in three hospitals were exposed and aimed to identify factors underlying these differences. According to analyses of time-, distance-, and shielding-related factors, the magnitude of the HT Lens dose to which IR nurses were exposed could be explained not by time or shielding but by the distance between the X-ray exposure field and the location of the IR nurse. This distance tended to be shorter in hospitals with fewer staff. The most effective means of reducing the exposure of the lenses of IR nurses’ eyes to radiation is to position them at least two meters from the radiation source during angiography procedures. However, some hospitals must provide IR departments with comparatively few staff. In work environments where it is infeasible to reduce exposure by increasing distance, interventions to reduce time by managing working practices and investment in shielding equipment are also important. This study was not registered.

“…[1,2] Initially named as interventional diagnostic radiology" by Dr. Alexander R. Margulis in 1967 [3], The concept of IR was systematically elaborated by the academic Wallace as early as 1976 and refers to fluoroscopically guided operative techniques for diagnosis and treatment. [4] The area of interest is visualized by image enhancement combined with percutaneous puncture and angiography. Developments in medical precision therapy and technological advances in the manufacture of medical devices have contributed to the rapid growth of the field.…”

The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics has led to significant progress in various medical fields, including interventional radiology (IR). This review focuses on the research progress and applications of AI and robotics in IR, including deep learning (DL), machine learning (ML), and convolutional neural networks (CNNs) across specialties such as oncology, neurology, and cardiology. To ensure the breadth and depth of this review, we implemented a systematic literature search strategy, selecting research published within the last five years. We conducted searches in databases such as PubMed and Google Scholar to find relevant literature. Special emphasis was placed on selecting large-scale studies to ensure comprehensiveness and reliability of the results. We discuss the role of AI techniques used before, during, and after intervention treatments and the advantages of robotics in achieving precise operations and reducing intra-operative risks. Challenges faced in the implementation of these techniques are also addressed. Finally, we explore the future trends and potential applications of AI and robotics in interventional therapy, highlighting their potential to improve patient treatment outcomes and quality of life.
