Procedure Request Checklist

Imaging-guided interventions are provided by several sections in radiology, the details and appropriate contacts for which are below (and also on this spreadsheet). For all procedures, however, please have the following information readily available:

  • Patient last name and MRN (room number is not terribly helpful)
  • Consentability, NPO, and anticoagulation status
  • Relevant allergies (contrast, sedating medications)
  • A direct call-back number that you will be available at for 60 minutes following your page.

Please note that while placing an imaging-guided procedure order will be needed (the most common of which are here), this order alone will NOT generate a page to the appropriate radiology section; you'll need to follow the section-specific steps below to make sure they are aware of the request

Who to call

VIR (Vascular and Interventional Radiology)

You can either contact the Vascular Radiology Pager (970-7930) or place a 'Consult to Interventional Radiology' order to generate a page. The pager is held 24/7 for urgent and emergent procedures. For non-urgent procedure requests, non-urgent questions, or FYI pages, please limit communications to the hours of 6:00 am to 9:00pm (a home-call coverage system is utilized). VIR procedures include:

  • Tunneled central line placement and bedside removals
  • Arteriograms +/- intervention (e.g., arterially extravasating GI bleed requiring embolization)
  • Pulmonary arteriograms and PE suction thrombectomy
  • IVC filter placements and removals
  • AVF / AVG fistulagrams +/- intervention
  • Percutaneous GTube / GJ Tube / J Tube placements, replacements, and checks in adults
  • Percutaneous nephrostomy / biliary / cholecystostomy tube placements, replacements, and checks (PCNs, PBDs, PercCholes)
  • Solid organ tumors ablations and embolizations (e.g., hepatic Y-90 treatment, hepatic bland embolization and microwave ablation, renal cryoablation, etc)
  • Intravascular solid organ biopsies (e.g, transjugular liver biopsies, transcaval biopsies)
  • Vertebral kyphoplasty and sacroplasty
  • Venous and arterial malformation percutaneous treatment
  • Additional procedures not covered below

Of note, VIR does not place PICC lines (contact PICC team), or inpatient non-tunneled central lines (contact medical procedure team)
