Dr. Waleska M. Pabon-Ramos
Overview
Interventional radiology allows me to perform minimally invasive procedures to treat a wide array of problems. Through tiny incisions on the skin that most frequently don’t require stitches, I insert a catheter, direct it to the problem area using imaging guidance (x-rays and/or ultrasound), and treat the problem. My areas of clinical focus include women (fibroids, adenomyosis, post-partum hemorrhage, placenta increta or percreta, occluded Fallopian tubes, chronic pelvic pain from pelvic congestion), children (venous malformations, arteriovenous malformations, combined malformations, difficult venous access), and lymphatics (lymphatic malformations, lymphoceles, chylothorax, chylous ascites, plastic bronchitis, protein losing enteropathy). To me, the most fulfilling part of interventional radiology is to provide patients effective minimally invasive alternatives to surgical procedures with fewer risks and shorter recovery times.

Clinical Research
Clinical research consists of overseeing clinical studies of patients undergoing new treatments and therapies, and publishing articles in peer reviewed medical journals. Providers who actively participate in clinical research are generally at the forefront of the fields and aware of the most up-to-date advances in treatments for their patients.

Duke Interventional Radiology Clinic - Clinic 2B/2C
As an interventional radiologist, my expertise is in minimally invasive procedures performed using radiologic guidance using the most current technology and devices in a variety of organ systems. Areas of particular clinical interest include minimally invasive cancer treatment of tumors in the liver, kidney, and bone (including osteoid osteoma) using interventional techniques such as embolization, radioembolization, and drug-eluting beads, as well as thermal ablative techniques including radiofrequency ablation, microwave ablation, and cryoablation. Additional areas of interest include endovascular interventions of venous pathology (including central venous occlusions and hemodialysis access), percutaneous enteral nutrition, particularly in patients with complex anatomy and needs -- including percutaneous jejunal feeding tubes), and vascular imaging using MR angiography and CT angiography. Dr. Kim is highly rated in 10 conditions, according to our data. His top areas of expertise are Ascites, Fibrolamellar Carcinoma, Cholangiocarcinoma (Bile Duct Cancer), Liver Embolization, and Gastrostomy.
