Regent Surgical has launched interventional radiology as a new specialty for its network with a surgical first.
Georgetown (Texas) Surgery Center recently performed the first artery embolization procedures across the entire Regent platform, according to an April 21 LinkedIn post from Regent Surgical.
Artery embolization is a less invasive alternative to traditional open surgery and can lead to faster recovery and lower risk.
Preston Smith, MD, an interventional radiologist led the program, the post said.
At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
