title: Venous access: options, approaches and issues.
abstract: The placement and management of venous access devices has become a routine and large part of the vascular and interventional radiologic practice. Compared with surgical series, our technical success is better and our complication rates are lower. A dedicated team approach with patient follow-up and management is required to create and maintain a successful line service.
