Cardiac & Vascular Center

TRPH Hospital employs new treatment technology for non-surgical treatment utilising the "Angiography Bi-plane," the first and only Bi-plane in a private hospital (in the south of Thailand). This apparatus supports all three components of the procedure, including the heart, brain, and other body parts.  

Examen de radiologie vasculaire Angiography is a standard radiological diagnostic procedure used to diagnose atherosclerosis. This scan is more precise than computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).  

This special instrument enables the physician to see the pathology of the patient's body, including the blood vessels, and relies on the capabilities of this machine to diagnose and treat using various tiny tools, such as catheters, needles, or equipment in combination with radiation therapy (Intervention). This treatment is feasible without surgery, a modern technique in the field of medicine that results in a quicker recovery time for the patient. Additionally, the incision is smaller and complications are reduced.  

Because there are numerous procedures that can be combined with radiotherapy. Treatments administered at TRPH Hospital  cab be classified to 3 groups: 

 

Diagnosis and treatment of heart disease Cardiovascular: Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory 

1. Coronary angiography (CAG) 

2. Inject the heart tube and dilate the blood vessels through the catheter. (Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) and stent) 

  

Neurology 

- Diagnosis and Treat cerebrovascular disease ischemic stroke 

Cerebral angiogram is a procedure where a catheter is inserted into the aorta and injecting 'contrast media' into the blood vessels to look at the abnormalities in various points. Moreover the use of this Bi-plane (Angiogram) will give more accurate results than the examination of blood vessels with computed tomography.  

The procedures available include: 

- Diagnostic Cerebral Angiography: Diagnosis of cerebrovascular disease with a 2-plane X-ray machine. 

- Machanical Thrombectomy: A procedure to remove a blood clot in a cerebral artery through a catheter to open blood vessels to allow blood supply to the brain 

  

Cancer group treatment / other part of the body. (Intervention Radiology) such as 

- Thermal imaging (RFA) hepatocellular carcinoma treatment 

- Direct tranarterial chemoembolization (TACE) hepatocellular chemotherapy 

- Biopsies or suction of fluids for laboratory examination 

- Percutaneous Drainage PTBD drainage 

- Insertion of a urinary drainage tube 

- Injection to examine blood vessels 

- Injecting a substance into a blood vessel to stop bleeding in case of heavy bleeding 

- Retraction of foreign bodies from blood vessels/ducts retrival /snare retrival 

- Balloon dilatation angioplasty and insertion of  stent 

TRPH Hospital, in South Thailand, uses the Angiography Bi-plane for non-surgical treatments of heart, brain, and other conditions. Key services include coronary angiography, cerebral angiography, stroke treatment, and interventional radiology for cancer, offering quicker recovery and reduced complications.
