Prostate artery embolization is a minimally invasive procedure that can effectively treat an enlarged prostate. The procedure involves injecting tiny particles into the arteries that supply blood to the prostate, which helps to shrink the gland and alleviate urinary symptoms. Prostate artery embolization is an alternative to surgery that offers shorter recovery times and fewer complications. Patients can expect to experience significant improvements in their urinary symptoms after the procedure.

Kyphoplasty is a medical procedure used to treat compression fractures of the spine. During the procedure, a small balloon is inserted into the fractured vertebra and inflated to create a space. Then, a special cement is injected into the space to stabilize the bone and reduce pain. Kyphoplasty is a minimally invasive alternative to traditional spine surgery, and can be performed on an outpatient basis. Patients can expect to experience significant pain relief and improved mobility after the procedure.

SpaceOAR is a medical product used in radiation therapy for prostate cancer. It is a hydrogel that is injected between the prostate gland and the rectum to create space and protect the rectum from radiation. The gel is absorbed by the body over time and does not affect the efficacy of radiation treatment. SpaceOAR can help reduce side effects such as rectal pain, bleeding, and incontinence.

Uterine fibroid embolization is a medical procedure used to treat uterine fibroids. During the procedure, a catheter is inserted into an artery in the groin and guided to the arteries that supply blood to the fibroids. Tiny particles are then injected into the arteries to block the blood flow and cause the fibroids to shrink. Uterine fibroid embolization is a minimally invasive alternative to surgery, and can help reduce symptoms such as heavy menstrual bleeding and pelvic pain.

Pelvic Venous Disease is a condition that causes chronic pain and discomfort in the pelvis caused by valves in the veins not functioning appropriately. Treatment options for this condition include pelvic vein embolization, which involves blocking off the abnormal veins that are causing the pain. This is done by inserting a catheter into the affected veins and injecting a special substance to seal them shut. Pelvic vein embolization is a minimally invasive procedure that can help reduce symptoms and improve quality of life.
