Blocking Blood Flow To A Tumor Or Organ

Hawaii rates for HCPCS 37243

A thin catheter is threaded through the blood vessels to the artery feeding a tumor or a targeted part of an organ, and material is injected to shut that flow off on purpose. Starved of its blood supply, a tumor shrinks, or the treated part of the organ is deliberately put out of action. The imaging used to map the vessels and guide the catheter is part of the service.
