Brief Profile
Dr. T. Deepashree is the Senior Consultant and Clinical Lead for Interventional Radiology and Imaging Services, with over 18 years of clinical experience and advanced qualifications, including MRCP, FRCR (UK), and EBIR. Trained in the Yorkshire Deanery, UK, she brings the combined perspective of both a physician and an interventional radiologist, offering precise, patient-centred, minimally invasive care.
She has performed over 1800 TACE procedures, 200+ uterine artery embolizations, and a wide range of vascular and non-vascular interventions for cancer, women’s health, pain management, organ preservation and complex image-guided therapies.
Selected as an International Scholar at the Society of Interventional Radiology Meeting (Atlanta, 2015), she also serves as a Professional Development Advisor at IRIA and mentors young radiologists through MIRACLE (Madras Interventional Radiology Circle).
Her professional focus spans image-guided oncology, women’s health interventions, and expanding access to minimally invasive treatments that reduce hospital stays and enhance recovery. A consistent academic achiever, she continues to contribute to research, clinical innovation and postgraduate training.
