鈼&苍产蝉辫;&苍产蝉辫;&苍产蝉辫;&苍产蝉辫;&苍产蝉辫; Fallopian tube blockage: Occasionally, fallopian tubes may become plugged or narrowed. Such blockages do not allow eggs to pass from the ovary to the uterus, resulting in infertility.

鈼&苍产蝉辫;&苍产蝉辫;&苍产蝉辫;&苍产蝉辫;&苍产蝉辫; Adenomyosis: Adenomyosis is a condition that occurs when the cells that normally line the uterus grow into the muscular tissue of the uterine wall. The uterine wall becomes thicker, which can cause pain. The entire uterus may also enlarge. 

Treatments by Leading Experts

At 麻豆传媒高清版, our team offers the most advanced and comprehensive treatments available, including:

Uterine fibroid embolization: Uterine fibroid embolization is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat fibroid tumors of the uterus. It is also called “uterine artery embolization.”

During this procedure, a catheter (long, thin tube) is inserted into a small cut in an artery in your thigh or wrist. Your interventional radiologist uses imaging technology to guide the catheter to the arteries that supply the fibroids with blood.

Your interventional radiologist will then use the catheter to deliver small particles, about the size of a grain of sand, into the blood vessel to stop blood flow. This stops blood from flowing to the fibroids, causing them to shrink and improving your symptoms and quality of life.

Uterine artery embolization for adenomyosis treatment: During this procedure, a catheter is inserted into a small cut in an artery In your thigh or wrist. Your interventional radiologist uses imaging technology to guide the catheter to the arteries that supply the uterine tissue causing the adenomyosis. 

Your interventional radiologist will then use the catheter to deliver small particles into the blood vessel to stop blood flow. This stops blood from flowing to abnormal vessels in the uterine wall, causing blood to flow to other, healthier vessels. This will improve your symptoms and quality of life.

Pelvic pain treatment: Our interventional radiologists are able to perform a wide variety of treatments for chronic pelvic pain. If varicose veins are found in the pelvic organs, they can be embolized. During this procedure, your interventional radiologist will block blood flow to the affected veins by either inserting a small, metal coil or injecting medication using a catheter. By blocking blood flow to the affected veins, blood flows to other, healthier veins. This improves your symptoms and quality of life.

Fallopian tube recanalization: Fallopian tube recanalization (FTR) is a minimally invasive procedure to clear blockages in the fallopian tubes. Using imaging technology, a catheter is guided through your cervix and into one fallopian tube.  Contrast dye is inserted with the catheter so that your interventional radiologist can see the blockage or narrowing clearly. Your interventional radiologist will then use another catheter or small wire to open the fallopian tube. If needed, the other fallopian tube will be examined and opened.
