Venous Ablation
Venous ablation is a minimally invasive treatment used to close diseased veins and improve blood flow in the legs. At New Beats Cardiology, venous ablation helps relieve symptoms of chronic venous disease, reduce discomfort, and support healthier circulation.
What Is Venous Ablation?
Venous ablation is a catheter-based procedure designed to treat veins that are not functioning properly, often due to damaged or weakened valves. When these valves fail, blood can pool in the veins, leading to symptoms such as leg pain, swelling, heaviness, and visible varicose veins.
The procedure works by closing the affected vein, allowing blood to reroute through healthier veins and improving overall circulation.
How Venous Ablation Is Performed
During venous ablation, a thin catheter is inserted into the affected vein under ultrasound guidance. Thermal or other targeted energy is delivered through the catheter to seal the vein shut. Once closed, the body gradually absorbs the treated vein, and blood flow is redirected to healthy veins.
The procedure is minimally invasive and typically performed on an outpatient basis with little downtime.
When Venous Ablation May Be Recommended
Venous ablation may be recommended for patients with chronic venous disease who experience symptoms such as leg swelling, pain, heaviness, fatigue, or skin changes. It is also commonly used to treat varicose veins that have not responded to conservative treatments.
Your cardiologist will evaluate your symptoms, vein structure, and circulation using imaging studies to determine whether venous ablation is the appropriate treatment option.
Benefits of Venous Ablation
Venous ablation can significantly improve circulation, reduce symptoms, and enhance quality of life. Because the procedure is minimally invasive, patients often experience less discomfort, shorter recovery times, and faster return to daily activities compared to surgical vein treatments.
Treating diseased veins can also help prevent progression of chronic venous disease and reduce the risk of complications.
