VNUS RadioFrequency CLOSURE procedure for varicose veins ![]() Similar to the EndoVenous Laser Ablation, (1) A special catheter or laser fiber is placed inside the saphenous vein using ultra-sound guidance. (2) The energy applied to each device heats the inside of the vein to destroy the lining. (3) The vein contracts to a smaller size, forms a thick and adherent blood clot, and ultimately dissolves to a fibrous cord, which can no longer be seen with ultrasound methods. Skin blood flow diverts spontaneously to the deep veins where the valves are almost always normal. |
