Vascular Disorders

Blood vessels play an important role in the nutrition of every tissue of our body.

In the presence of chronic systemic diseases over time, the functions of the vessels may deteriorate.

Diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, thyroid diseases, frequent drug use in situations such as occlusion of the vessels may occur.

A sedentary lifestyle, irregular and unhealthy diet also increases the deterioration of vascular function.

In general we have two main types of vessels; Throws veins and collects veins.

Occlusion of the arteries very quickly manifests itself.

The first findings are numbness and pain in the vicinity of the obstruction.

Obstruction of the veins is more insidious and gives late signs.

Generally, the first findings are edema and mild pain.

The most undesirable result of vascular blockage of the veins is a heart attack and stroke that develops as a result of clogging of the vessels in the heart and brain.

The diagnosis and treatment of vascular diseases are very important.

It is vital.

Interventional radiology is one of the medical fields that play an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of vascular diseases.

Clogged vessels can be opened with great success in a short time without the need for a major surgery.

Interventional radiology: Interventional radiology is the procedure of diagnostic or therapeutic interventional procedures performed by using US, CT, MR or fluoroscopy. With the use of these devices, organs and tissues are seen and operations are performed and thus risks associated with operations are minimized. The procedures performed in the interventional radiology unit are divided into vascular (vascular) and extra-vascular (nonvascular) procedures. Vascular procedures are related to the arteries and veins, nonvascular procedures are the procedures performed for organs other than vessels.

Vascular Interventional Radiological Procedures: Vascular procedures are related to the arteries and veins. In diagnostic procedures, special needles and catheters are advanced into the vessel to be imaged and images are taken by contrast material. In therapeutic procedures, procedures are applied to solve the problem in the vessels. After local anesthesia, a small diameter sheath is inserted through the needle into the artery passing through the groin and a small diameter catheter is reached through the sheath and the images are taken after contrast administration. After the administration of contrast material, vascular structures become visible and the presence of pathological conditions is revealed.
