Blocking An Abnormal Vein Using Image Guidance

Oregon rates for HCPCS 37241

This procedure uses a catheter, guided by imaging, to intentionally block off an abnormal or unwanted vein, such as one causing a venous malformation or varicocele, for a reason other than stopping active bleeding. Small particles, coils, or another blocking agent are delivered directly into the vein through the catheter. It's a minimally invasive alternative to open surgery.
