A new frontier in medicine, interventional neuroradiology
offers hope for
conditions that were once considered hopeless, revolutionizing treatment
options for a number of neurological disorders.
Performing procedures
available nowhere else in Oklahoma, Mercy NeuroScience Institute's team of interventional
neuroradiologists (INRs) are trailblazers, with nationally
recognized expertise and credentials.
Mercy INRs
Timothy Title, MD,
Vance McCollom, MD, and
Robert Handley, MD have accomplished a number of “firsts” in Oklahoma,
including:
-
The only
intra-arterial stroke protocol to administer clot-busting drugs
precisely at the site of certain types of stroke
-
Use of MERCI® (Mechanical Embolus Removal in Cerebral Ischemia), the
latest technological advance to remove a clot lodged in a blood vessel
in the brain.
