Tech for Your Health
Medical technology is constantly evolving to better treat today’s health and wellness concerns. From state-of-the-art diagnostic imaging to minimally invasive robotic surgery, read on to learn more about the latest technological advancements in healthcare.
This advanced catheter system can effectively treat varicose veins.
Varicose veins are enlarged veins that are visible to the eye and commonly occur in the legs. While they are most often a benign cosmetic concern, in some cases, varicose veins can cause pain and discomfort. Whether for cosmetic reasons or for symptom relief, innovative technology can provide a solution.
The Venclose Radiofrequency Ablation System is one of the most advanced systems currently available to treat varicose veins. With state-of-the-art features and proven results, this system has successfully treated over 200,000 patients.
How Does It Work?
Treatment with Venclose involves a simple, outpatient procedure. Your doctor will first insert a small catheter into the affected vein.
Venclose will then deliver heat, causing the vein to shrink and close. The catheter is then removed, and the procedure is complete. Following treatment, the body will naturally reroute its blood flow to healthy veins.
The Benefits of Venclose
Minimally invasive. The low- profile design of Venclose minimizes invasiveness and maximizes efficiency.
One-of-a-kind technology. Venclose is the only system of its kind that offers a 360-degree approach to varicose vein treatment. Its small resistive heating coil provides circumferential heating, rather than the quadrant heating of other systems.
Flexible design. Venclose also sets itself apart with the ability to accommodate both long and short vein segments, thanks to a flexible catheter shaft that can navigate and provide treatment to a wide range of anatomies. Plus, clear markings and a curved tip help ease positioning during the treatment process.
