Vascular Procedures

•  Angiography and angioplasty of    peripheral and renal artery    stenosis.
•  Treatment of acute and chronic    arterial occlusions (Thrombolytic    therapy, Percutaneous aspirations,    Thrombectomy, Stent-PTA).
•  Stent-PTA of Carotid artery    stenosis    and angioplasty of    supraaortic    vessels.
•  Stent-Graft repair of Abdominal    Aortic and peripheral aneurysms.
•  Haemodialysis access    maintenance.
•  Embolisation of AVM    (Arterio- Venous Malformations)    and internal bleeding.
•  TIPS (Transjugular Intrahepatic    Portosystemic Shunt).

Non-Vascular Procedures

•  Varicocoeles and Uterine Fibroid    Embolisation.
•  Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation    and Chemoembolisation of    malignant liver lesions.
•  Vertebroplasty for osteoporotic    disorders, haemangiomas, etc.
•  CT-Guided biopsy and abscess    drainage.
•  Biliary drainage and stenting.

These are ideal for many conditions and provide patients with an alternative to conventional surgery.
