The Art & Science Of Minimally Invasive Healing

USG-Guided Lines and Catheter Insertion

Ultrasound-guided line and catheter insertion is a minimally invasive procedure used to place central lines, peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC), or other vascular access devices safely and accurately. Using real-time imaging, Dr. Vatsal ensures precise placement, reduces complications, and allows for reliable delivery of medications, fluids, or chemotherapy, improving patient comfort and treatment efficiency.

Chemo-Port Placement

A chemo-port is a surgically implanted device that provides long-term, secure access to veins for chemotherapy or other treatments. This reduces repeated needle sticks, minimizes discomfort, and allows for safe and efficient administration of medication. Dr. Vatsal performs chemo-port placement using advanced imaging guidance to ensure proper positioning and optimal patient safety.

Y-90 Trans-Arterial Radioembolization (TARE)

Y-90 TARE is a targeted liver cancer treatment where radioactive microspheres are delivered directly to tumors through the hepatic artery. This procedure allows high-dose radiation to attack the tumor while sparing healthy liver tissue. Dr. Vatsal uses precision imaging and interventional techniques to safely deliver this therapy, providing effective tumor control with minimal side effects.

Angio-Embolization for Active Bleeders

Angio-embolization is a minimally invasive procedure used to control active bleeding, including tumor-related or traumatic bleeds. Using catheter-based techniques and imaging guidance, Dr. Vatsal blocks the bleeding vessels, stabilizes the patient, and prevents further blood loss. This approach reduces the need for open surgery and ensures rapid recovery.

Pre-Operative Embolization of Vascular Tumors

Pre-operative embolization is performed to reduce blood supply to highly vascular tumors before surgery. By selectively blocking feeding vessels, Dr. Vatsal minimizes intraoperative bleeding, improves surgical safety, and facilitates a smoother procedure. This precise, image-guided intervention supports better outcomes and faster recovery for patients undergoing tumor surgery.
