Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to see if using aromatherapy (Lavender or Bergamot) will lower anxiety in patients having invasive Radiology procedures. First, the level of anxiety is assessed prior to the procedure using a questionnaire. Then, patients are given the aromatherapy treatment during the pre-procedure period. Then, the same questions are asked to determine how anxious the patient is after the aromatherapy and before going into the procedure room. After the procedure, patients are asked to evaluate the process of the study.
