Interventional neuroradiologists at Mills-Peninsula use state-of-the-art, minimally invasive procedures to treat conditions of the brain, head and neck, and spinal cord region. Using image-guided techniques that don’t require open surgery, we treat clots, stroke and other major neurological diseases.
Mills-Peninsula now offers interventional treatment of stroke using stent retrievers, small mesh tubes that can pull a blood clot out during an acute ischemic stroke. A newer innovation, stent retrievers can restore blood flow to the brain, limiting or reversing damage caused by a stroke.
