Fluoroscopy is an imaging technique commonly used by physicians to obtain real-time moving images of internal structures of the patient through the use of a fluoroscope.
A fluoroscope consists of an X-ray source and fluorescent screen between which a patient is placed. This technology is very helpful to surgeons when performing surgical procedures.
Interventional fluoroscopy has tremendous advantages over invasive surgical procedures because it requires a very small incision which substantially reduces recovery time and reduces risk of infection for the patient.
