- Head and Neck Interventional Radiology Treatments
At Vascular Interventional Radiology Group, we offer cutting-edge, minimally invasive treatments for complex head and neck conditions. Using advanced imaging guidance, an Interventional Radiologist in Noida or Interventional Radiologist in Delhi can precisely target abnormalities in blood vessels and tumors reducing the need for open surgery, minimizing complications, and ensuring faster recovery.
Stroke / Cerebrovascular Accident (CVA)
Stroke occurs when blood flow to the brain is blocked or reduced, leading to brain cell damage. Immediate intervention is critical to prevent long-term disability or death.
- Emergency imaging (CT/MRI) to differentiate ischemic vs hemorrhagic stroke
- Mechanical thrombectomy to physically remove clots from large brain arteries
- Intra-arterial thrombolysis for targeted clot dissolution
- Highly effective within the first 6–24 hours (depending on patient selection)
- Minimally invasive catheter-based technique via groin or wrist
- Preserves brain tissue and improves neurological outcomes
- Reduces long-term disability and rehabilitation needs
- Managed by experienced Vascular Interventional Radiologist in Delhi at Interventional Radiology Group
Intracranial Aneurysm Embolization
Aneurysms are balloon-like dilations in brain arteries that can rupture and cause life-threatening bleeding. Embolization is a minimally invasive way to seal these aneurysms.
- Access through femoral or radial artery with microcatheters
- Techniques include coil embolization, flow diverters, and stent-assisted coiling
- Prevents rupture or re-bleeding in already ruptured aneurysms
- Suitable for aneurysms that are difficult to treat surgically
- Real-time imaging ensures precise placement of devices
- Lower morbidity and faster recovery compared to open brain surgery
- Typically requires short hospital stay
- Expertise available with Vascular Interventional Radiologist in Noida
Arteriovenous Malformations (AVMs) and AV Fistulas
AVMs and AV fistulas are abnormal direct connections between arteries and veins that disrupt normal blood flow and can lead to bleeding or neurological symptoms.
- Endovascular embolization using liquid embolic agents, coils, or particles
- Reduces abnormal high-pressure blood flow
- Can be staged for complex AVMs
- Often combined with neurosurgery or stereotactic radiosurgery
- Effective in reducing risk of hemorrhage and seizures
- Minimally invasive with no large incisions
- Short recovery time with close imaging follow-up
- Treated by skilled Vascular Interventional Radiologist in Delhi
Pre-operative Tumor Embolization
This procedure reduces the blood supply to highly vascular tumors before surgical removal, improving safety and outcomes.
- Performed 1–3 days before planned surgery
- Blocks tumor-feeding arteries using embolic materials
- Significantly reduces intraoperative bleeding
- Improves surgical visibility and precision
- Shortens duration of surgery and anesthesia time
- Commonly used for head and neck tumors like paragangliomas
- Enhances chances of complete tumor removal
- Available at Vascular Interventional Radiology Group with expert care
Cerebral Venous Thrombosis (CVT)
CVT is caused by clot formation in the brain’s venous system, leading to increased intracranial pressure and potential brain damage.
- Diagnosed using MR venography or CT venography
- First-line treatment is anticoagulation therapy
- Advanced cases may require catheter-directed thrombolysis
- Mechanical thrombectomy for clot removal in severe cases
- Helps relieve pressure and prevent complications like hemorrhage
- Minimally invasive and highly targeted intervention
- Particularly beneficial in deteriorating or non-responsive patients
- Managed by experienced Vascular Interventional Radiologist in Noida
Transarterial Tumor Therapies
These therapies deliver treatment directly into tumor-feeding arteries, maximizing effectiveness while minimizing systemic side effects.
- Includes chemoembolization (TACE) and radioembolization (TARE)
- Direct delivery of chemotherapy or radioactive particles
- Blocks blood supply to tumor (embolization effect)
- Suitable for inoperable or recurrent head and neck tumors
- Can be used as palliative or curative treatment
- Reduces tumor size and symptoms such as pain or bleeding
- Minimal systemic toxicity compared to traditional chemotherapy
- Offered by Vascular Interventional Radiologist in Delhi at Interventional Radiology Group
Carotid Artery Stenting
A minimally invasive alternative to surgery for treating carotid artery narrowing, which is a major risk factor for stroke.
- Placement of a stent to widen narrowed carotid arteries
- Performed under local anesthesia via catheter-based approach
- Embolic protection devices used to prevent stroke during procedure
- Ideal for patients at high risk for open surgery
- Improves blood flow to the brain
- Reduces risk of future strokes and transient ischemic attacks (TIAs)
- Quick recovery with minimal hospital stay
- Expertise available with Vascular Interventional Radiologist in Noida
