Neurointerventional Radiology
Neurointerventional radiology provides minimally invasive surgery for diseases of the head and neck and spine, particularly vascular diseases (those that involve blood vessels). Services include:
- Acute stroke intervention to remove/break up clots
- Aneurysm and vascular malformation embolization
- Preoperative embolization of head and neck tumors, to decrease bleeding intraoperatively
- Arterial stenting for atherosclerotic disease causing narrowing of arteries in the head and neck
- Arterial stenting for injury due to trauma
- Venous stenting for intracranial hypertension
