[Interventional neuroradiology].
Interventional procedures in neuroradiology have three great applications: endovascular therapy, stereotactic brain procedures, percutaneous therapeutic radiology of the spine. Endovascular therapies consist of occlusions of vessels or arteriovenous malformations, desobstruction of totally or partially occluded vessels and intraarterial chemotherapy. Stereotactic brain procedures consist of biopsies and stereotactic radiosurgery. Biopsy of the spine, facet joints infiltrations under fluoroscopic guidance, intervertebral disk infiltration, chemonucleolysis and percutaneous automated nucleotomy, vertebroplasties are the different interventional procedures of the spine. This activity with an increasing development must lead to the creation of interventional neuroradiology units associated with fundamental research.
