Our angiography suite utilizes the most up to date Toshiba/Siemens technology with the digital angio unit. This allows for less contrast and minimum radiation exposure to the patient and gives the best imaging possible.
Angiography or angio/ interventional radiology procedures take place in the department of imaging at Johns Hopkins Bayview using our Toshiba/Siemens angiographic suites. There is no risk from anesthesia and hospital stays are shorter than in the past. Procedures performed at Medical Center include invasive and non-invasive studies such as: - Angioplasty: dialation of vascular narrowing or bypassing obstructed vessels
- Stenting: to keep blocked vessels open
- Percutaneous Drainage: fluid removal and obstruction bypasses
- Percutaneous Biopsy: surgery-free method of removing tissue specimens
- Intravascular Therapy: clot irradication drugs, chemotherapy
- Diagnostic Studies: angiography, mylograms
- Neuroradiology Studies: carotid stenting, coiling intracranial aneurysms, gluing of AVMs
