What is the interventional radiologist’s approach to treating varicose veins?

In this case, the treatment that a radiologist may propose varies from person to person. There are numerous medications available that the interventional radiologist will appreciate. The interventional radiologist will examine the patient clinically and use Doppler to determine the patient’s living systems, varieties, perforators, insurances, and amount of puncture. He accurately performs a puncture into the infected vein under the guidance of USG-Sonography.

The following are the best varicose vein treatment methods for these:

LASER–

EVLT is a new and highly advanced treatment (Endo-Venous Laser Therapy). This is a minimal to non-intrusive methodology that does not involve any scarring, stitching, or cutting. It is performed under local anaesthesia with peri-venous anaesthesia to protect the adjacent skin and nerves from the laser action. Because the therapy is so advanced, most patients do not need to be hospitalised and can return to their regular living routine the next day after varicose vein treatment. This is the most frequently utilised and time-tested therapy modality that is widely approved around the world.

Venaseal:

This treatment option is considered by doctors to be the most accessible for varicose veins. In layman’s terms, it’s a vein adhesive. It is referred to as medical-grade glue. It acts as a glue by sealing the veins rather than heating them. Varicose veins fibrose and eventually disappear. It’s also a very good approach with good results, but long-term findings have yet to demonstrate efficacy. It is also expensive.

Radio-frequency Vein ablation:

Interventional radiologists employ radiofrequency heat to seal the varicose veins in this case. It is similar to LASER removal in that laser heat is used for treatment.

Sclerotherapy: 

Sclerotherapy involves Interventional Radiologists directly injecting a sclerosant medicine into unhealthy veins in order to close them down. They also favour ultrasound to control the procedure, which is known as ultrasound-guided froth sclerotherapy. It is commonly used for security veins that are complicated in their course and are adjuvant to laser-RFA treatment. There is also a trend in this direction, in which mechanical injury is treated with a catheter with metal prongs, followed by sclerotherapy. (Procedure for MOCA-MechanOChemical Ablation)

These are the medications that interventional radiologists and varicose vein surgery doctors will recommend and use in the same way. Similarly, the system is dependent on the patient’s condition, as specialists will not proceed without first assessing the patient’s clinical status. There is also the notion of 4 layer dressing used for venous ulcer healing, which with its increasing layer and tightness gives results and totally heals the wound.
