Bronchial Artery Embolization (BAE) is a minimally invasive procedure used to control bleeding in the bronchial arteries, commonly associated with conditions like hemoptysis, aneurysms, or vascular malformations. Dr. Konika Chaudhary, a leading expert, sheds light on this vital medical intervention.
Procedure
- Mapping and Imaging: BAE begins with precise mapping of the bronchial arteries using advanced imaging techniques.
- Catheter Insertion: A thin catheter, guided by Dr. Chaudhary, is inserted through a small incision, reaching the target site.
- Embolization: Tiny particles or coils are injected to block bleeding vessels, with real-time monitoring.
