www.comsurg.com Dr. Philip Rice of Commmonwealth Surgical Services offers varicose vein treatment with VNUS ClosureFAST cathether. The new generation VNUS ClosureFAST catheter was introduced and received FDA clearance in August 2006 and is a culmination of approximately four years of research and development. The ClosureFAST catheter is designed to significantly reduce procedure time and enhance ease-of-use for the physician. Like the original VNUS Closure catheter, the ClosureFAST catheter uses RF energy and VNUS RF generators to deliver controlled energy and monitor treatment temperature for the purpose of closing diseased veins. The Closure procedure using the ClosureFAST catheter minimizes the post-procedure pain and bruising commonly associated with the competitive endovenous laser treatment.

Nonsurgical Treatment For Varicose Veins Now Available in US

Margo DeSantis used to cringe every time she would put on her tennis skirt, wishing she could hide the varicose veins on her leg. But it wasn’t worth it to her to undergo surgery that would have involved incisions every two inches up and down her leg to rip the vein out and the scarring that would result. It was ten years before she learned that interventional radiologists perform a nonsurgical procedure that’s done in a doctor’s office, takes an hour or less and involves incisions that are smaller than a pencil point. DeSantis is not alone. Many of the 25 million people in the US that suffer from varicose veins (one out of every two adults over 50) are unaware of the nonsurgical option, because most people have never heard of interventional radiologists. These doctors are board certified vascular specialists who offer minimally invasive, targeted treatments throughout the body. To treat varicose veins, they make a small nick in the skin, then use ultrasound imaging to thread a laser up the vein to seal it, redirecting blood flow to healthy veins. Patients can return to normal activities almost immediately. As DeSantis says “there is nothing that I can’t wear anymore.” You can read more about the treatment and find an interventional radiologist in your area at www.SIRweb.org Produced for Society of Interventional Radiology

Treating Varicose Veins with Vascular Laser Therapy

Varicose Veins are more common than you think – they affect 25% of adults and half of all people over 50. In the last few years, the use of lasers has become a fast, less painful alternative to surgical stripping. Vascular Laser Therapy can be performed in a physician’s office in less than one hour. In Vascular Laser Therapy, a thin laser fiber is inserted into the diseased vein. The physician delivers laser energy through the fiber, causing the vein to close. The loss of the diseased vein is not a problem for the circulatory system – blood simply flows through other healthy veins after the procedure. Is Vascular Laser Therapy painful? Although individual responses vary, most people report feeling little or no pain after therapy. Often the only sensation that is felt is during the delivery of anesthetic to the leg. Patients are encouraged to walk immediately following the procedure. How successful is Vascular Laser Therapy? Clinical results have been published which document the results of endovenous laser treatment. Like any medical treatment, Vascular Laser Therapy has certain risks, which your doctor will explain to you as they may apply to your individual circumstances. Advanced Cardiology Practice in Wayne, NJ offers comprehensive vein treatment and therapy, including sclerotherapy and Vascular Laser Therapy.

    The principle of thermo coagulation is the heating of the vein which makes the vein coagulate. This rise in temperature is achieved by sending a high frequency pulse in the tip of the needle or catheter. Because the needle and or catheter is isolated, the effect is very local and the effect on the surrounding tissue is limited.
