Thyroid Embolization
Thyroid artery embolization is a minimally invasive interventional procedure that reduces thyroid gland size by blocking its blood supply through catheter-delivered embolic agents. This non-surgical option is suitable for patients with symptomatic goiter who are not ideal surgical candidates or prefer to avoid surgery. Patients in Bengaluru benefit from Dr. Adarsh's expertise in this procedure.
