Department of Adult and Pediatric Diagnostic, Interventional Neuroradiology
Specialized in: adult and pediatric diagnostic, interventional neuroradiology About the Department of Adult and Pediatric Diagnostic, Interventional Neuroradiology at University Hospital Würzburg
The Department of Adult and Pediatric Diagnostic, Interventional Neuroradiology at the University Hospital Würzburg offers the full range of radiological studies and modern minimally invasive catheter procedures for the treatment of vascular diseases of the brain, head and neck, spine. The highly qualified team of doctors of the department specializes in the treatment of strokes, aneurysms, vascular malformations and atherosclerosis. In addition, the department is equipped with high-tech systems the special diagnostics of the central and peripheral nervous system. The department operates a national Expert Center for Radiological Diagnostics of Brain Tumors in Children. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Mirko Pham.
All diagnostic and therapeutic procedures are provided in accordance with the strict guidelines of the professional societies. In the course of treatment, there is maintained close cooperation with the specialists from related disciplines, for example, neurosurgeons, neurologists, otolaryngologists, ophthalmologists, and specialists in oral and maxillofacial surgery. The diagnostics and treatment of malformations of the central nervous system in children is also based on an interdisciplinary approach.
The service range of the department includes:
- Minimally invasive treatment of vascular malformations of the brain, head and neck, upper limb, spine and spinal cord
- Emergency medical care for stroke
- Stroke prevention (prevention of atherosclerosis)
- Cerebrovascular aneurysms
- Arteriovenous malformations of the brain and spinal cord
- Vascular malformations in the face, head, neck and body
- Vascular fistulas and arteriovenous dural fistulas
- Vascular tumors of the head and neck (for example, meningiomas, paragangliomas, juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibromas)
- Catheter procedures to arrest bleeding in the face, head and neck
- Minimally invasive interventions on the brain veins for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes
- Minimally invasive pain therapy
- Treatment of neuropathic pain in spinal nerve lesion
- Treatment of headaches (decrease of the cerebrospinal fluid volume)
- Specialized neuroradiological diagnostics
- Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
- Computed tomography (CT)
- Radiography
- Angiography (digital subtraction angiography)
- Diagnostics and treatment of diseases and malformations of the central nervous system in children (in collaboration with the Departments of Pediatric Radiology, Pediatric Neurosurgery, Pediatrics)
