    Embolization therapy utilizes a minimally invasive technique to cut off blood flow to a targeted area through the use of particles, glue, or coils.
    Embolization procedures are used to halt blood flow in a targeted blood vessel. This is achieved by inserting a substance into the vessel to block the passage of blood. These procedures can effectively treat a range of conditions, including haemorrhages, tumours, and abnormal blood vessels found in the brain and elsewhere in the body. They are also used for other medical issues such as an enlarged spleen, uterine fibroids, and traumatic injuries.
    Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE)
    Uterine Fibroid Embolization is a non-surgical procedure that uses minimal invasion, reducing the length of hospital stay and recovery time.
    Epic International Hospital offers Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) procedures performed by an interventional radiologist. The doctor will insert a catheter through an artery in the groin or wrist and inject small particles into the fibroids’ blood supply. These particles attach to the vessel walls, forming a clot that obstructs blood flow. As a result, the fibroids shrink as their blood supply is cut off. Typically, this treatment leads to an improvement in symptoms over time.
    Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE)
    PAE, or prostate artery embolization, is a simple procedure done on an outpatient basis that effectively treats an enlarged prostate and urinary symptoms caused by BPH (benign prostatic hyperplasia).
    PAE (prostate artery embolization) is a proven and safe method for treating BPH (benign prostatic hyperplasia), inspired by the successful use of uterine artery embolization to treat uterine fibroids. An enlarged prostate can put pressure on or partially block the urethra, leading to urinary tract symptoms such as incontinence, pain or discomfort when urinating frequent urination, and urgency.
    The PAE procedure at Epic International Hospital is conducted by an interventional radiologist (IR). This highly specialized doctor utilizes X-rays and other advanced imaging techniques to diagnose and treat conditions without the need for surgery.
