UC Davis Medical Center in Sacramento is a quaternary care, Level I trauma center serving a diverse patient population with a broad range of clinical needs.

Interventional procedures are performed in the hospital and at our outpatient 48X Complex, which opened in July 2025 and features state-of-the-art angiography suites and dedicated ultrasound- and CT-guided procedure rooms. Hospital-based interventional suites are being upgraded with new angiography equipment, and the CT procedure room is being converted to a hybrid angiography/CT suite.

UC Davis Medical Center's campus is expanding, with the new California Tower adding inpatient beds and increasing procedure volumes across the health system. Together with the division's growing community presence, this expansion is driving demand for interventional radiology services.
