Advanced Imaging: Understanding Cerebral Angiography at Pomona Valley Hospital
Medical Center
Unraveling Complexities: Cerebral Angiography stands as a cornerstone in advanced medical imaging,
especially in the realm of neurology and vascular health. At Pomona Valley
Hospital Medical Center, our expert team utilizes this sophisticated procedure
to gain unparalleled insights into the intricate blood vessels within
the brain, aiding in the diagnosis and treatment of various neurological
and vascular conditions.
A Closer Look: Cerebral Angiography, also known as intra-arterial digital subtraction
angiography (DSA), involves the use of contrast dye injected directly
into the blood vessels of the brain. This allows for real-time visualization
of the blood flow, identifying blockages, aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations
(AVMs), and other abnormalities that may impact brain function or pose
risks such as stroke.
Cutting-Edge Technology: Our state-of-the-art imaging suite is equipped with the latest digital
subtraction angiography technology, ensuring high-resolution images while
minimizing radiation exposure. This precision is crucial in capturing
detailed views of even the smallest blood vessels within the brain, providing
neurosurgeons and interventional radiologists with the information they
need for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
Focused Care: During the procedure, patients are carefully monitored by our skilled
medical team to ensure safety and comfort throughout. Our radiologists
and technicians, experienced in performing cerebral angiograms, work collaboratively
to obtain comprehensive images that guide neurosurgical interventions,
endovascular procedures, or ongoing monitoring of vascular conditions.
Advancing Treatments: The benefits of Cerebral Angiography extend beyond diagnosis, as it plays
a vital role in guiding minimally invasive treatments such as embolization
for aneurysms or arteriovenous malformations, angioplasty for narrowed
vessels, and stent placement for vascular stenosis. This targeted approach
reduces the need for more invasive surgeries and promotes faster recovery
times for patients.
Our Commitment: At Pomona Valley Hospital Medical Center, we prioritize patient safety,
accuracy, and innovation in every aspect of healthcare delivery. Our commitment
to excellence in advanced imaging techniques like Cerebral Angiography
reflects our dedication to providing exceptional neurovascular care tailored
to each patient's unique needs.
