Interventional
Neuroradiology is a minimally invasive approach in the treatment
of vascular diseases of the central nervous system.
Conditions
in the past that would have required surgical intervention such
as aneurysms, vascular malformations, and tumors of the brain,
spine, head and neck can be considered for treatment by using
an endovascular approach to reach the lesion.
Interventional
techniques such as thrombolysis are also useful in the management
of patients with acute ischemic stroke. These endovascular procedures
can allow treatment of previously untreatable or difficult lesions.
Our
team of Interventional Neuroradiologists are available for consultation
24 hours a day.
We
have a weekly Cerebrovascular conference to review radiographic
studies and clinical information on cases referred to the Center
for discussion of treatment options.
We
invite you to send cases. Please contact our nurse coordinator
Teresa Vanderboom, RN at 724-5656 beeper #35605 to expedite the
process, or e-mail us
for more information.
