The technology addresses several problems with conventional embolization, including the lack of pain and reduced side effects that make this procedure safe and effective for use in children.
Conclusion:
Radioembolization is a minimally invasive procedure that takes 30 minutes to perform. It is performed in the physician’s office with a portable ultrasound machine and wires placed into the arteries in your neck or chest. The radio waves we use do not travel through or disrupt any organs and are slower than x-rays, so there is less risk for radiation exposure. Once you are made aware of the procedure, it is quick and easy to complete. Radioembolization is the most effective way to stop bleeding. When needed, highly skilled embolization specialists at Y-90 Alamogordo will use a catheter to deliver a low dose of radiation directly to the source of bleeding. Radioembolization also may be used as an alternative for patients who have had previous radiation therapy for cancer or treatment for other diseases.
