Interventional Radiology

Our Achievements

Quick Overview
Quick Overview

Interventional Radiology uses imaging to guide minimally invasive treatments across the body. Instead of open surgery, our specialists work through small incisions with real-time image guidance. This means shorter recovery and less discomfort for you. Zulekha Hospital, Dubai and Sharjah, offers advanced Interventional Radiology services supported by state-of-the-art technology. We combine advanced imaging with hands-on expertise across neuro, vascular and oncology cases. Every procedure is planned with your safety and comfort in mind.

Specialties & Diseases We Treat

Neurovascular Conditions

Neurovascular conditions affect the blood vessels of the brain and spinal cord, potentially impacting normal blood flow. Imaging plays an important role in identifying these conditions and supporting timely treatment planning.

Treatments & Procedures Offered

Brain Aneurysm Coiling

Brain Aneurysm Coiling

A catheter-based technique that fills the aneurysm with tiny coils. This seals it off and prevents rupture.

Flow Diverter Placement

Flow Diverter Placement

Advanced endovascular treatment for selected Brain aneurysms, using a specialized stent-like device to redirect blood flow and promote gradual aneurysm healing.

AVM Embolization

AVM Embolization

We block abnormal blood vessel connections in the brain using specialised agents. This reduces bleeding risk and supports further treatment if needed.

Endovascular Treatment of Carotid Cavernous / Dural AV Fistulas

Endovascular Treatment of Carotid Cavernous / Dural AV Fistulas

Trans-arterial or transvenous embolisation using coils or liquid embolic agents to close abnormal connections.

Mechanical Thrombectomy for Acute Stroke

Mechanical Thrombectomy for Acute Stroke

Rapid clot removal from brain arteries during an acute stroke. Every minute counts, and our team is trained to act fast.

Endovascular Aortic Repair (EVAR/TEVAR)

Endovascular Aortic Repair (EVAR/TEVAR)

A stent reinforces a weakened or torn section of the aorta. This stabilises the vessel and prevents rupture.

Carotid and Peripheral Artery Angioplasty and Stenting

Carotid and Peripheral Artery Angioplasty and Stenting

A balloon is used to widen narrowed arteries in the limbs. This restores blood flow and eases symptoms like pain and cramping.

Limb Ischemia Cather Directed Thrombolysis and Thrombectomy

Limb Ischemia Cather Directed Thrombolysis and Thrombectomy

Blocked or narrowed vessels in the limbs are treated to restore blood flow. This helps prevent tissue damage and relieves pain.

Embolization for Haemoptysis and Gastrointestinal Bleeding

Embolization for Haemoptysis and Gastrointestinal Bleeding

We locate and seal off the bleeding vessel directly. This stops bleeding quickly without the need for open surgery.

AV Fistula Salvage

AV Fistula Salvage

For dialysis patients, we keep vascular access sites open and functioning well. This helps ensure smooth, uninterrupted treatment.

Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) Management

Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) Management

Clots are dissolved or removed using catheter-based techniques. This reduces the risk of complications like pulmonary embolism.

IVC Filter Placement

IVC Filter Placement

A small filter is placed in a major vein to catch clots before they reach the lungs. This is often used when clot-related risk is high.

Varicose Veins - Thermal or Glue Ablation combined with Sclerotherapy

Varicose Veins - Thermal or Glue Ablation combined with Sclerotherapy

Damaged veins are closed off using minimally invasive techniques. This relieves discomfort and improves the appearance of the legs.

Carbon Dioxide Angiography for Patients with Kidney Disease or Contrast Allergy

Carbon Dioxide Angiography for Patients with Kidney Disease or Contrast Allergy

An alternative contrast method used during vascular imaging. This is especially useful for patients with kidney concerns.

Chemo-Embolization of Liver Tumours

Chemo-Embolization of Liver Tumours

Chemotherapy is delivered directly to the tumour while cutting off its blood supply. This targets the tumour with less impact on healthy tissue.

Tumour Ablation

Tumour Ablation

Minimally invasive needle procedure to treat certain tumours by radio-frequency/ microwave/ Cryo-ablation.

Uterine Fibroid Embolization

Uterine Fibroid Embolization

Blood supply to fibroids is cut off, causing them to shrink over time. This spares many women from surgical removal of the uterus.

Pelvic Vein Embolization

Pelvic Vein Embolization

Pelvic congestion syndrome can be treated by blocking abnormal refluxing veins and reducing chronic pelvic pain.

Varicocele - Gonadal Vein Embolisation

Varicocele - Gonadal Vein Embolisation

Blocking abnormal refluxing veins and reducing scrotal pain, swelling and fertility issues.

Nephrostomy

Nephrostomy

A small tube is placed to drain urine directly from the kidney. This is used when normal urine flow is blocked.

Percutaneous Biliary Drainage and Stenting

Percutaneous Biliary Drainage and Stenting

A procedure to drain bile when normal pathways are obstructed. It relieves pressure and prevents further complications.

Thyroid Nodule Ablation / Embolization

Thyroid Nodule Ablation / Embolization

Heat-based energy is used to shrink problematic thyroid nodules. This avoids the need for surgical removal in many cases.

Pain Management

Pain Management

Genicular Artery Embolization (GAE) for treating osteoarthritis of the knee joint by reducing abnormal blood flow and inflammation around the knee joint.
