The highly specialized services of the Vascular Center of the Saint
Barnabas Health Care System are designed to provide
comprehensive care in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders affecting
the circulatory system. Advanced imaging techniques, including physiological
studies, MRI, CT, ultrasound and angiography are
combined to detect abnormalities in blood vessel walls and deficiencies
in blood flow.
Located at three convenient sites in northern New
Jersey, our state-of-the-art vascular centers offer the most advanced
non-invasive techniques for identifying the structure of blood vessels
and measuring blood flow. Our experienced team of physicians and technologists
can pinpoint the exact location of blockages, measure the degree of
artery or vein impairment, and evaluate the condition of vessel walls.
We provide the latest methods for diagnosing and evaluating stroke,
phlebitis, varicose veins, aneurysms, renal artery stenosis and peripheral
arterial disease (PAD).
Once identified, many vascular conditions can be
treated with innovative minimally invasive procedures that increase
patient comfort and speed recovery, while reducing the risk of complications.
Treatments include medical therapies and catheter-based interventions,
as well as traditional surgical procedures.
Our renowned team of vascular specialists offers
patients access to cutting-edge treatment modalities that are not
available elsewhere. Participation in prestigious clinical research
trials provides patients with the next generation of stent-graft devices
and other technological advances.
The Vascular Center provides patient education
and screening for people at risk for developing
vascular disease. Informative sessions conducted
by our professional staff outline the symptoms of vascular disease
and the latest trends in treatment.
As centers of excellence, all three Vascular Centers provides education
and training for physicians in practice, as well as physicians-in-training
and technologists. Our residency and fellowship programs are accredited
by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME)
and offer highly specialized experience in the field of vascular surgery.
The Vascular Centers are certified by the Intersocietal Commission for
the Accreditation of Vascular Laboratories and are staffed by registered
vascular technologists.
