Abstract

Interventional radiology (IR) needs comprehensive structure. The reactive structure of the past is strategically unwise for long-term growth of IR. IR needs a structured approach to move forward most effectively. A preliminary taxonomic scaffold is put forth and critically analyzed to illustrate new areas of research for the field, to identify new opportunities for growth, and to serve as a starting point for future discussion.
