We would to introduce a new technique that we are offering at our offices.
Genicular Artery Embolization (G*E), a minimally invasive, image-guided procedure designed to help patients suffering from chronic knee pain — particularly pain associated with osteoarthritis — find relief without surgery.
Genicular Artery Embolization represents a growing advancement in interventional medicine. The procedure targets abnormal inflammation in the knee by selectively reducing blood flow in small arteries contributing to pain signals. Performed using advanced imaging guidance, G*E is completed through a tiny catheter insertion and typically allows patients to return home the same day.
“ Our mission is to bring cutting-edge, evidence-based solutions to patients seeking alternatives to traditional surgery,” said Dr. Mehran Manouel. “Genicular Artery Embolization expands the treatment landscape for individuals whose pain has not responded to conservative therapies and who may not be ready for joint replacement.”
