St. Gregorios Advanced Interventional Radiology Services
Interventional Radiology, with the help of imaging and artificial intelligence offers painless, non-surgical alternative to most of the disease conditions with evident advantage of fewer complications and faster recovery.
Facilities & Services
Edit Content
- Stroke Management:
- Mechanical Thrombectomy: Removal of blood clots from blocked arteries in the brain, especially for ischemic stroke patients.
- Thrombolysis: Direct delivery of clot-busting medication to the site of the stroke.
- Aneurysm Repair:
- Coiling and Stenting: Minimally invasive techniques to treat brain aneurysms, where coils or stents are used to reinforce weakened blood vessels and prevent rupture.
- Arteriovenous Malformations (AVMs):
- Treatment of abnormal tangles of blood vessels using embolization to reduce or eliminate the risk of bleeding.
- Cerebral Angiography:
- Advanced imaging technique to visualize blood vessels in the brain and diagnose blockages, malformations, or aneurysms.
- Carotid Artery Stenting:
- Placement of stents in the carotid arteries to prevent strokes by treating stenosis (narrowing of the artery).
- Spinal Interventions:
- Treatment of spinal vascular abnormalities or compression fractures using minimally invasive techniques like embolization and vertebroplasty.
- Venous Sinus Thrombosis:
- Treatment of blood clots in the brain’s venous system using mechanical thrombectomy or stenting.
- Tumor Embolization:
- Preoperative or palliative embolization to reduce blood flow to brain tumors, reducing surgical risks or providing symptom relief.
Edit Content
- Stroke Interventions: 24/7 stroke management services, including both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke care.
- Aneurysm and AVM Treatment: Expertise in treating complex aneurysms and AVMs using minimally invasive approaches.
- Comprehensive Diagnostic Imaging: Advanced imaging techniques such as CT angiography, MR angiography, and digital subtraction angiography (DSA) to evaluate neurological conditions.
- Carotid and Intracranial Stenting: For patients at high risk of stroke due to arterial narrowing.
- Vascular Malformation Embolization: For both cranial and spinal abnormalities.
- Tumor Embolization: Pre-surgical embolization to reduce blood flow to brain tumors.
