Manatee Memorial Opens Biplane Interventional Radiology Suite

Business

In an effort to enhance the diagnosis and treatment of stroke among area residents, Manatee Memorial Hospital has announced the opening of the county’s first Biplane Interventional Radiology Suite featuring the Azurion image guided therapy system from Philips Healthcare. This flexible system can aid in the diagnosis and treatment of a range of patient conditions including stroke, cancer, biliary disease or vascular disease, using minimally invasive procedures. The catheter-based procedures are designed to reduce some of the risks and recovery time found in traditional surgical approaches. Among the many benefits of catheter-based interventions are shorter hospital stays, reduced recovery time without the pain of a large incision, and less visible surgical scarring.
