Ultrasound Guided Sclerotherapy

Ultrasound Guided Sclerotherapy is a modality for treating perforators and painful, large varicose veins.�� The injection therapy, using a small needle, is inserted directly into the vein with ultrasound guidance.�� There is minimal pain on injection.�� A foaming solution technique (Foam Therapy), with FDA approved sodium tetradecyl is used.�� The chemical solution irritates the lining of the vessel causing it to swell and stick together.�� Ultrasound guidance is a procedure done in the office.�� After treatment you will remain lying on the table approximately 30 minutes. The result is a more accurate, non-evasive treatment that will relieve your symptoms.
