Endovascular Therapies

By treating appropriate neurovascular conditions from inside the blood vessel via a catheter, physicians at the Atlantic Neuroscience Institute offer the least invasive and most current treatment options available.

Endovascular therapies can be effective to eliminate the blood vessel abnormalities (aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations) responsible for many bleeds into the brain; to treat narrowing of the carotid artery (carotid stenosis) responsible for many strokes; to treat the narrowing of brain arteries (vasospasm) that occurs following many subarachnoid hemorrhages causing secondary strokes, and to repair narrowing or blockages of arteries feeding the brain.

Our interventional neuroradiologists and neurosurgeons were among the first in the area to use many of these techniques. Endovascular therapies are performed in our neuroangiography suite by endovascular specialists.
