  • Carotid artery disease assessments
  • Lower extremity physiological testing
  • Renal artery and intestinal artery duplex scanning

Treatments

  • Atherectomy
  • Balloon angioplasty
  • Catheter-based embolectomy/thrombectomy/thrombolysis
  • Catheter-based revascularization
  • Drug-coated balloon
  • Endovascular catheter-based stent grafting (EVAR) for abdominal aortic aneurysms
  • Endovenous laser therapy (EVLT) for symptomatic varicose vein therapy
  • Large-bore catheter thrombectomy (Vortex) for large volume central vein thrombosis (IVC) or clots in transit with pulmonary emboli (PE)
  • Pedal entry/pedal loop revascularization/reconstruction for patients with limb gangrene or limbs at risk that have no other vascular procedure options
