What is Interventional Radiology?
What is Interventional Radiology?
• Minimally-invasive image-guided procedures
to diagnose and treat diseases in nearly every
organ system.
“I’m Sick! Help!”
“I’m Sick! Help!”
“I’m Sick! Help!”
• Stabilize, Rescue craft within 24 hours, Return
to Earth, Receive proper medical attention.
“I’m Sick! Help!”
“I’m Sick! Help!”
… Sorry?
“I’m Sick! Help!”
… Sorry?
We don’t accept Earth
Health Insurance.
• Stabilization is not good enough
What we worry about
(Most Common)
Cholecystitis
Appendicitis
Hydronephrosis/Pyonephrosis
Choledocholithiasis
Abscess
Pneumothorax/Hydrothorax/Empyema
Pancreatic Pseudocyst
Peritoneal Fluid

Luckily…
Specifically Doing Only Ultrasound Guided
Percutaneous Drainage Procedures is More Amenable

Future “Earth based” Research
• These have been thoroughly researched, proven, and
performed every single day by hundreds of IR
physicians across the United States.
• Few studies on KC-135, indicated that anatomy and
physiology remains the same as far as percutaneous
procedures go.
• Further researched utilizing the KC-135 and newer
“zero g” research aircraft with anesthetized pigs
• Remote “bases” such as a submarine, aircraft-carrier
and hospital-ships
• Isolated bases such as the Antarctic research stations

Additional Modalities
• FLUOROSCOPY
Additional Modalities
• Fluoroscopy combined with Ultrasound is the
workhorse of Interventional Radiology
• Enables even better localization
• Makes possible innumerable more procedures
to treat medical and surgical emergencies
Fluoroscopy
TOO HEAVY!!
Once again…
New Age of Technology
Portable DR Radiography
• Approximately 5-15 pounds
Intervention and Diagnostic
Intervention
• Provides single shot image for localization of
needles and wires
• Can inject contrast and perform multiple
single shots for fluoroscopic approximation
(Not fast enough for vascular intervention: IE
arteriograms)
Diagnostic
• Innumerable diagnoses can be obtained from
xray imaging.
Ultrasound + X Ray/Radiography
Ultrasound + X Ray/Radiography
• Powerful Combination
What we worry about
(Most Common)
Cholecystitis
Appendicitis*
Hydronephrosis/Pyonephrosis
Choledocholithiasis
Abscess
Pneumothorax/Hydrothorax/Empyema
Pancreatic Pseudocyst
Peritoneal Fluid
Central Venous/Arterial Access
Septic Joint
Appendix *
Appendix * (And Gallbladder)
• Vestigial organ: Not needed
• Can wreak havoc on Explorer Class Mission
• How do we deal with it?
Appendix *
Explorer Class Mission
• Treatment options:
• Medical: Antibiotics etc. Hope it does not perf.
•
Research on non-operative treatment has been performed with variable outcomes
• Laparoscopic appendectomy in microgravity
•
(Complications previously discussed)
Appendix *
Explorer Class Mission
• IR:
• Drain abscess after perforation.
•
(Not ideal, peritonitis, sepsis, etc)
• Percutaneous access, use catheter/balloon to
push out appendicolith
•
(No research on Earth, however this is occasionally done for nephrolithiasis,
cholelithiasis/cystitis, and choledocolithiasis)
Appendix *
Appendix *
Explorer Class Missions
• PRE MISSION ELECTIVE APPENDECTOMY
Conclusions
• Many surgical problems may arise during an Explorer Class spaceflight
mission.
• Necessary equipment to surgically solve these problems would not be
readily available or ideal.
• This lecture is to suggest a possible paradigm shift in the approach to
surgical treatment in microgravity.
• Sonographically guided percutaneous procedures can treat many medical
and surgical events while having many advantages.
• These are performed every day by radiologists throughout the country,
and generally carry risk and complication rates comparable or better than
to surgery.
• Although further research is required, interventional radiology is ideally
suited to handle the predicted medical and surgical problems of Explorer
Class spaceflight missions with percutaneous treatment, resolving
symptomatology and clinical disease during the mission, and which could
then be definitively treated upon return to Earth.
