Backed by the largest private radiology practice in the nation, the VIS team combines a 80-year legacy of excellence with state-of-the-art technology to provide hospital-grade care in a boutique, outpatient setting.The center is a leading provider of Hemorrhoidal Artery Embolization (HAE), offering a sophisticated alternative to traditional surgery for patients seeking lasting relief from the symptoms of chronic internal hemorrhoids.The VIS Advantage: Hemorrhoidal Artery Embolization (HAE)Precision Image Guidance: Using advanced fluoroscopy and micro-catheter technology, board-certified specialists target the specific superior rectal arteries that supply the hemorrhoidal cushions.Non-Surgical Shrinkage: By releasing tiny embolic particles to reduce excess blood flow, the hemorrhoids shrink naturally over time. This effectively eliminates bleeding, itching, and pressure without any cutting or removal of tissue.Painless Recovery: HAE is performed through a tiny “pinhole” entry point in the wrist or groin. Because there are no incisions or stitches in the anal canal, patients avoid the intense post-operative pain associated with a traditional hemorrhoidectomy.Outpatient Convenience: Most procedures are performed in the sophisticated VIS 8th Avenue Center, allowing patients to return home the same day and resume normal activities within 24 to 48 hours.Why Patients Choose VISTrusted Legacy of Care: As part of Radiology Associates of North Texas, the VIS team brings decades of proven expertise and a reputation for superior patient outcomes.Specialized Facility: The VIS Center is a “one-of-a-kind” outpatient suite equipped with the latest imaging tools (CT, Ultrasound, and Cios Alpha C-Arm) specifically designed for minimally invasive vascular work.Personalized Approach: Every patient receives a customized treatment plan focused on comfort, safety, and a rapid return to the activities they love.
