Advanced Innovation: Bi-plane DSA

Non-surgical Stroke Treatment

The Bi-plane Digital Subtraction Angiography (Bi-plane DSA) system allows high-precision diagnosis and treatment of cerebrovascular diseases, liver disease, peripheral vascular disease, and other vascular conditions throughout the body. This cutting-edge imaging technology enables interventional radiology procedures as a minimally invasive alternative to surgery.

 

Key Advantages of Bi-plane DSA:

• Dual-plane imaging (front and lateral views simultaneously)

• High-resolution, 3D-like images for enhanced diagnostic accuracy

• Clear visualization of even the smallest blood vessels and catheters

• Reduced radiation exposure and contrast agent usage

• Rapid, accurate diagnosis in critical conditions such as stroke and heart disease

• Increased confidence and treatment efficiency

Electroencephalography (EEG)

 

EEG records the brain’s electrical activity by monitoring neural impulses and displaying them as waveforms. Brain wave patterns, including their frequency and amplitude, help specialists determine normal or abnormal brain function under various conditions (awake, asleep, during seizures, or under stimulation).

Indications for EEG:

• Diagnose and monitor epilepsy

• Detect brain abnormalities such as tumors, trauma, or post-surgical changes

• Assess consciousness levels in coma or decreased responsiveness

• Diagnose brain death

• Evaluate sleep disorders

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)

TMS uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain, enhancing neural connectivity without causing damage to surrounding tissues.

 

FDA-approved TMS Treatments:

• Treatment-resistant depression

• Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)

• Migraine headaches

 

 

Rehabilitation Applications:

TMS is also effective in post-stroke rehabilitation for patients with paralysis, speech, swallowing, or communication difficulties. When combined with physical therapy, TMS shows superior outcomes compared to physical therapy alone.

 

Additional Uses:

• Neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s disease and epilepsy

• Chronic pain management, including muscle stiffness, back pain, and musculoskeletal pain

 

Safety and Considerations:

TMS is considered safe under professional supervision. Magnetic fields affect only a small, localized area (1–3 cm), minimizing systemic risk. Contraindications include patients with implanted cardiac pacemakers, cerebrospinal fluid shunts, high intracranial pressure, or newly placed metallic implants.

Possible side effects are generally mild, such as headache or dizziness. Rarely (approx. 2%), TMS may trigger seizures.
