PURPOSE: To determine the relative degree of participation by radiologists and other specialists in percutaneous interventional procedures.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: By using 1992 Medicare Part B claims data that covered seven states, the specialty of the physician provider was determined for all services performed within various percutaneous vascular and nonvascular interventional procedure codes.
RESULTS: Radiologists' performance of interventional procedures in descending percentage of participation was as follows: renal cyst aspiration (92.7%), biliary decompression (90.5%), abdominal or retroperitoneal mass biopsy (87.7%), lung or mediastinal biopsy (84.2%), noncardiac angioplasty (76.8%), pancreatic biopsy (75.2%), upper urinary tract decompression (73.7%), liver biopsy (43.7%), renal biopsy (38.4%), certain types of abscess drainages (38.2%), and thoracentesis with tube insertion (29.4%). They had only small roles in thoracentesis for aspiration (4.7%) and tube thoracostomy (1.7%).
CONCLUSION: Despite controversy between radiologists and other specialists over who should perform percutaneous interventions, radiologists have maintained strong predominance in many types of these procedures. In others, they have a shared, but still major, role.
