The Vascular Division at Sunway Medical is one of the centres of excellence in this tertiary specialist care hospital. This division offers a comprehensive and professional service for patients with vascular disease. Vascular surgeons together with cardiologists, endocrinologists, orthopedic surgeons, nephrologists and the rehabilitation team are all involved in taking care of these patients. Working together, the doctors in Sunway Medical Centre provide the best possible care for patients with vascular disease.
The Vascular Division is equipped with the latest tools for screening, diagnosis and treatment for patients with vascular disease. The Vascular Laboratory is a non-invasive diagnostic unit. It is equipped with ‘Doppler’ and Duplex ultrasound scanners that are able to screen and diagnose patients with vascular disease safely and accurately. If indicated, the patients may proceed to the state-of-art 64-slide CT Angiography or Magnetic Resonance Angiography. In the treatment of vascular disease, the Vascular Division believes that open procedures (open surgery) and minimal invasive procedures (endovascular procedures) complement each other. Whereas some patients may benefit from endovascular procedures, others may require open surgery, and yet others benefit from a combined approach of endovascular intervention and open surgery. The Vascular Division has an Endovascular suite for these procedures |
