Consulting
Vascular Surgical Solutions will evaluate your current practice equipment, procedures, and numbers and prepare a report on ways to improve your practice’s patient experience, flow, and revenue.
Training
Vascular Ultrasound is a science and an art form, which is why Vascular Surgical Solutions can help physicians and sonographers enhance their ultrasound skills to increase competency and efficiency.
Our advanced training methods will help your team achieve better imaging quality ultimately resulting in more legitimate procedures to be performed. Upon training completion, your team will have a solid understanding of how to accurately read venous insufficiency studies and perform the necessary venous procedures.
To train at your own clinic, with your own equipment, while performing exams and procedures on your own patients with your physician’s input is invaluable. Performing on-site training reduces costs, maintains revenue streams, and provides global skill advancement.

Endovascular Surgical Procedures
An alternative to traditional open surgery, endovascular surgery is an innovative, less invasive procedure that offers advantages such as
small incisions, shorter hospital stay, less pain, and quicker return
to normal activities.
Venous Ablations
An outpatient surgical procedure that uses radiofrequency or a laser catheter that heats up at the end to successfully close up and seal an insufficient vein.
Endovascular Laser Ablation
This ultrasound-guided procedure is used to treat chronic venous insufficiency (malfunctioning veins) by performing surgery on the walls of the faulty vein by means of targeted laser energy. After introducing a local anesthetic, a small incision is made to insert a hollow needle through which the laser is inserted. The heated laser energy damages the vein walls causing them to eventually shrink and close off the vein.
Radiofrequency Ablation
Similar to endovenous laser ablation, except it utilizes radio frequency to collapse the vein rather than a thermal laser.
Venaseal Closure
A specially formulated medical adhesive similar to glue is used to permanently seal the diseased vein closed. Only one needle hole is needed per vein treated and there is no need for the additional injections of a local anesthetic around the vein, unlike endovenous laser ablation or radiofrequency ablation.
Varithena
A microfoam is injected via a catheter or direct injection into the malfunctioning veins. The foam fills the desired section of the vein and treats the vein wall. This causes the diseased vein to collapse and blood flow is redirected to healthier nearby veins.
Ambulatory Micro-Phlebectomy
This procedure is performed to remove diseased veins in small sections through a series of tiny incisions, most often performed in conjunction with endovenous ablation under local anesthesia.
Sclerotherapy
A treatment method for a large area of damaged veins no longer able to carry blood. Using ultrasound guidance, a chemical solution is injected with a small needle at several locations ultimately resulting in the unwanted veins being reabsorbed into the patient’s system.
