Uterine artery embolization (UAE) is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat symptomatic uterine fibroids. It involves the injection of small particles into the uterine arteries, blocking blood flow to the fibroids... Read more »
MMA, in the context of interventional radiology, stands for middle meningeal artery. Embolization is a minimally invasive procedure used to block blood flow to a specific area. Thus, middle meningeal artery embolization... Read more »
This minimally invasive procedure addresses a specific type of brain bleed, a subdural hematoma, by targeting the source of the bleeding within the meningeal arteries. A specialized catheter is navigated through the... Read more »
This minimally invasive procedure involves blocking blood flow to the middle meningeal arteries, typically on both sides of the head. It is often performed by interventional neuroradiologists using specialized catheters and embolic... Read more »
Uterine artery embolization (UAE) using microspheres composed of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is a minimally invasive procedure performed by interventional radiologists. This procedure blocks blood flow to uterine fibroids, leading to their shrinkage... Read more »
Subdural hematomas (SDHs) are collections of blood that accumulate between the brain’s surface and the outermost layer of tissue covering the brain (dura mater). Minimally invasive procedures using specialized materials like methyl... Read more »
Uterine fibroid embolization (UFE) is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat symptomatic uterine fibroids. It involves blocking blood flow to the fibroids through the injection of small particles, typically made of... Read more »
