About

Florian Wolf is Vice Director of the Division of Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiology at the General Hospital in Vienna. It is the largest Interventional Radiology Department in Europe.

Prof. Dr. Wolf has many years of experience there, and has gained a broad knowledge in this innovative section of Radiology.

Interventional Radiology encompasses minimally invasive interventions with radiological guidance (X-ray, CT, MRI, Ultrasound). Interventional radiology covers not only interventions in patients with vascular disease, oncological disease, and other various benign diseases, but also interventions related to pain management.

Florian Wolf’s aim for each treatment is to achieve the optimal medical result with the lowest possible pain burden and the shortest recovery time.
