Vascular Embolization
Interventional radiologists can treat bleeding anywhere in the body using embolization. During embolization, an interventional radiologist inserts a catheter through a nick in the skin and advances it to the site of the ruptured blood vessel. An embolizing agent — a substance that clots or closes off the bleeding blood vessel — is injected under X-ray guidance.
