Abstract
Open AccessThe genitourinary tract is commonly injured in blunt and penetrating trauma. Improvements in interventional radiology (IR) techniques increasingly allow for minimally invasive treatment options for a range of genitourinary injuries. Through ongoing advances in image-guided techniques, IR physicians continue to refine genitourinary trauma management, improving treatment efficacy and safety. This review describes the background, current practices, and future directions for IR-guided genitourinary trauma management.
