Vascular surgery without the surgery.
Endovascular procedures have replaced many once standard surgeries. Without the incision, scar, or hospitalization.
AAA
Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms can grow silently, but are deadly. If you have deep, constant pain in your abdomen, a pulse at your belly button, and/or back pain, please see a doctor ASAP. Boulder Radiologists has decades of experience with treating AAA without surgery by EVAR (Endovascular Aneurysm Repair.) EVAR can be very complex, so make sure your operator has the experience necessary for success.
PAD
Peripheral Arterial Disease can be incapacitating to your lifestyle, limiting your ability to do the things you love. Although not as simple as plumbing, we have the specialized tools and techniques to unclog and reopen your blood vessels, thus restoring blood flow and your quality of life.
DVT
Deep Vein Thrombosis has been shown to occur more frequently at higher elevations, and we see many travelers and athletes impaired by this dangerous disorder. Boulder Radiologists understand the ramifications of inadequate DVT treatment, as clot that isn’t treated quickly can cause long term damage, leaving your leg swollen and heavy. Aggressive, up-front procedures by our doctors can prevent this post-thrombotic syndrome.
PE
Pulmonary embolism occurs when clot breaks free and travels to your lungs, inhibiting your heart and lung’s ability to oxygenate. Previously, treatment was simply to administer blood thinners and wait. We have learned that actively removing clot as quickly possible leads to better outcomes. Boulder Radiologists has been on the cutting edge of this breakthrough technology, and are on call 24/7 for this sometimes life-saving procedure.
