Additional Venous Services
Where Technology and Expertise Combine for Advanced Care
At Vivid Vascular, our expertise goes beyond varicose veins and embolization. In our state-of-the-art Cath Lab, we provide a full spectrum of advanced venous and interventional radiology procedures. Whether you require dialysis access, biopsies, or drainage solutions, our board-certified team is equipped to deliver safe, effective care with precision and compassion.
Our Additional Venous & Interventional Services Include
AV Fistula and Graft Declots
We restore proper blood flow to dialysis access points by safely removing clots from AV fistulas or synthetic grafts, ensuring ongoing access and minimizing interruptions to dialysis treatment.
Chemotherapy Port Placement
For patients undergoing cancer treatment, we offer precise placement of venous access ports that allow for long-term, repeat chemotherapy delivery with reduced discomfort and infection risk.
Dialysis Catheter Placement
Our team places tunneled or temporary dialysis catheters using real-time imaging for optimal positioning and reliable venous access for life-sustaining treatment.
Paracentesis
When fluid accumulates in the abdominal cavity due to conditions like liver disease or cancer, we perform safe, image-guided drainage to relieve pressure and improve comfort.
Nephrostomy Tube Placement
For patients with blocked upper urinary tracts, we place drainage catheters directly into the kidney (nephrostomy) to relieve obstruction and preserve kidney function.
Image-Guided Biopsies
We provide targeted biopsies of soft tissue, organs, or lymph nodes using advanced imaging technology to ensure diagnostic accuracy with minimal discomfort.
Vertebroplasty / Kyphoplasty
These minimally invasive procedures stabilize fractured vertebrae caused by osteoporosis or cancer, delivering rapid pain relief and spinal support.
IVC Filter Placement and Retrieval
For patients at risk of pulmonary embolism, we place inferior vena cava (IVC) filters to prevent life-threatening clots from reaching the lungs. We also offer safe, image-guided retrieval once filters are no longer needed.
