Advanced Technology for Arterial Health

Voiced by Amazon Polly

Advancements in technology have revolutionized arterial vascular care, providing more precise diagnostics and effective treatments for conditions like peripheral artery disease (PAD). At the Vascular Institute of Chattanooga (VIC), we leverage state-of-the-art technology to deliver exceptional care.

 

Cutting-Edge Diagnostics

Accurate diagnosis is key to successful treatment. At VIC, we use advanced imaging tools like duplex ultrasound, CT angiography, and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) to evaluate circulation and identify arterial blockages. These tools help pinpoint the cause of symptoms such as painful walking or reduced ambulation, ensuring targeted treatment plans.

 

Minimally Invasive Treatments

For conditions like PAD, VIC offers minimally invasive techniques that restore blood flow without the need for traditional surgery. These include:

  • Balloon Angioplasty: A small balloon is used to widen narrowed arteries.
  • Stenting: A mesh tube is placed to keep the artery open and improve circulation.
  • Atherectomy: Specialized devices remove plaque buildup, alleviating symptoms like claudication and promoting easier walking.

 

Innovation for Better Outcomes

By utilizing the latest technology, VIC ensures shorter recovery times, reduced risks, and improved long-term outcomes for patients. Whether you’re dealing with painful walking, circulation issues, or PAD, VIC provides the tools and expertise needed to get you back on your feet.
