Areas of Expertise
Neurovascular Interventions :
-
Diagnostic Cerebral and Carotid Angiogram: Imaging of brain and neck blood vessels to detect blockages, aneurysms, or malformations.
-
Acute Stroke Management – Mechanical Thrombectomy: Removing blood clots from brain arteries using stent retrievers or aspiration devices (Penumbra system).
-
Intracranial Aneurysm Coiling & Techniques: Placing coils inside brain aneurysms to prevent rupture, using methods like balloon remodelling, stent support, or flow diverters.
-
Endovascular Embolization of AVMs & Fistulas: Blocking abnormal blood vessel connections in the brain (AVMs, dural AVFs, carotid cavernous fistulas).
-
Pre-operative Embolization of Tumours: Reducing blood supply to head and neck tumours before surgery to minimize bleeding.
-
Carotid and Intracranial Stenting: Placing stents in neck or brain arteries to keep them open.
Peripheral and Aortic Intervention :
-
Peripheral Angioplasty & Stenting: Opening blocked leg or arm arteries using balloons and stents.
-
Aortic Stent Grafting (TEVAR, EVAR): Using stents to treat aortic aneurysms or dissections.
-
Hybrid Aortic Procedures: Combining open and endovascular techniques for complex aortic repairs.
-
Fenestrated Aortic Stent Grafting (FEVAR): Customised stents for aneurysms involving branch vessels.
-
Aortic Angioplasty and Stenting: Opening narrowed areas in the aorta.
-
Aortic Balloon Placement: Temporary balloon insertion to control bleeding during aortic or vascular surgeries.
Trauma & Haemorrhage Control :
-
Visceral Pseudoaneurysm Embolization: Sealing leaking arteries in organs.
-
Splenic Devascularization: Blocking blood supply in severe splenic injuries.
-
GI Bleed Embolization: Stopping bleeding in the gastrointestinal tract.
-
Renal Artery Pseudoaneurysm/AVF Embolization: Treating kidney artery injuries or abnormal connections.
-
Peripheral Pseudoaneurysm Embolization: Blocking pseudoaneurysms in limbs.
-
Uterine Artery Embolization for PPH/Adherent Placenta: Controlling life-threatening uterine bleeding.
-
Embolization for Intractable Epistaxis: Blocking nasal artery for uncontrollable nosebleeds.
