Interventional Neurology
Overview
Interventional Neurology is a speciality that combines the expertise of neurology and interventional radiology. It involves the use of advanced imaging techniques and catheter-based procedures to diagnose and treat various neurological disorders, including strokes, aneurysms, vascular malformations, and other conditions affecting the blood vessels and tissues of the brain and spinal cord.
With a team of highly skilled interventional neurologists and state-of-the-art technology, we strive to provide exceptional care to our patients.
Conditions Treated by Interventional Neurology
At Max Healthcare, our interventional neurologists are experienced in managing a wide range of neurological conditions, including:
- Stroke: Interventional neurology plays a crucial role in the management of acute ischemic strokes by delivering clot-busting medications directly to the site of the blockage or using mechanical devices to remove the clot.
- Aneurysms: Aneurysms are abnormal bulges in blood vessels that can rupture and cause life-threatening bleeding. Our interventional neurologists utilise techniques such as coiling and stenting to repair aneurysms, minimising the risk of rupture and promoting better patient outcomes.
- Arteriovenous Malformations (AVMs): AVMs are tangled, abnormal connections between arteries and veins in the brain or spinal cord. Interventional neurology techniques can be employed to block or embolise these abnormal blood vessels, reducing the risk of bleeding and alleviating associated symptoms.
- Brain Tumors: Interventional neurology plays a vital role in the diagnosis and treatment of certain brain tumours. Techniques such as embolisation can be used to reduce blood flow to the tumour, making surgical removal safer and more effective.
- Vascular Stenosis: Narrowing of blood vessels in the brain or neck can lead to reduced blood flow and an increased risk of stroke. Interventional procedures, such as angioplasty and stenting, can help restore blood flow and prevent further complications.
Advanced Techniques and Technology
We are committed to providing the latest advancements in interventional neurology. Our state-of-the-art facilities are equipped with advanced imaging technologies, including angiography and fluoroscopy, which allow our interventional neurologists to visualise and navigate the complex structures of the brain and spinal cord with exceptional precision.
Additionally, we utilise innovative techniques and tools, such as microcatheters and embolic materials, to deliver targeted treatments while minimising damage to surrounding healthy tissues. These minimally invasive approaches often result in shorter hospital stays, faster recovery times, and improved patient outcomes.
Comprehensive Care and Patient-Centered Approach
Our multidisciplinary team of interventional neurologists, neurosurgeons, radiologists, and other specialists work collaboratively to ensure that each patient receives personalised treatment plans tailored to their specific needs. We prioritise open communication and active involvement of patients and their families throughout the entire treatment process.
