Meeting Dr Sandeep Sharma at IRfacilities

When Colonel Singh went to IR facilities, he was looking to gain clarity and confidence and a reliable alternative. The doctor, Dr Sandeep Sharma explained the causes of his symptoms and referred him to PAE.

Understanding the Artery (DSA)

1. Left Prostatic Artery

This DSA depicts all the arteries located on one side of the prostate. It helps identify the principal vessels supplying blood to the left side of the prostate. An unobstructed view of this will ensure that the embolization is precise.

2. Right-Side Artery

This shows the arteries that run on the left side. Each patient is unique and therefore it is essential to map both sides. It assists in guiding the micro-catheter in a safe manner to the proper place.

3. Right Prostatic Artery from the Obturator Artery

Some patients have artery disorders. In this instance, the prostate artery on the right was derived from the obturator vein instead of the typical branch. Recognizing this early will help doctors avoid missing the right artery.

4. Left Superior Vesical Artery supplying the urinary bladder

This picture shows an artery that supplies the bladder with urine. It is essential to observe this clearly in order that embolization doesn't interfere with the flow of blood to the bladder.

Here, the left prostate artery arises from the same arterial source that supplies the bladder. This is a different variation, and the mapping helps ensure that the arterial material reaches only the prostate region. These images will give the doctor a the complete, safe strategy prior to commencing PAE.
