Myth! Uterine Fibroid Embolisation (UFE) is a safe and effective procedure that targets fibroids without harming the uterus and offers significant relief from fibroid symptoms without invasive surgery. UFE works by blocking the blood supply to the fibroids, causing them to shrink and eventually disappear. Unlike a hysterectomy, UFE preserves the uterus. This makes it […]

An ultrasound-guided biopsy is a procedure that uses ultrasound imaging to precisely guide a needle to the area of interest, to obtain a tissue sample for testing. This method provides a safe and accurate way to assess whether cancer is present. The procedure involves no major surgery and is performed with local anesthesia, making […]
Uterine Fibroid Embolisation (UFE) is a pinhole procedure that offers relief from fibroids without the need for invasive surgery. But how do you know if you’re a good candidate for UFE? If symptoms like heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, or frequent urination due to fibroids are impacting your quality of life, UFE could be the […]
A Bone Density Scan (DEXA) is an imaging test that helps to assess your bone health. This is a non-invasive procedure used to measure bone mineral density, helping to diagnose conditions like osteoporosis. By evaluating the strength of your bones, a DEXA scan provides early insights into potential risks of fractures, especially in women over […]
Did you know that fibroids can make you more vulnerable to developing anaemia? This is due to the loss of iron-rich haemoglobin, which is crucial for transporting oxygen throughout the body. Anaemia can lead to several complications including chronic fatigue, and should never be ignored 🌸
Fallopian Tube Recanalisation (FTR) and In-vitro fertilisation (IVF) are both fertility treatments, but very different in emotional, physical and monetary cost. If you are considering IVF and have not yet explored FTR, it might be worth eliminating the simple possibility of blocked fallopian tubes before starting the significant journey of IVF. Please send us a […]
Uterine Fibroid Embolisation can offer life-altering relief from fibroids. Without the need for invasive surgery, this quick and relatively painless procedure is the starting point to achieve long-term, significant improvement. Through a tiny incision in the wrist, micro particles are injected into the targeted fibroids to halt their blood supply. As a result, the targeted […]
MIC is pleased to add Prostate Artery Embolisation to our list of Interventional Radiology procedures. Prostate Artery Embolisation (PAE) is a minimally invasive procedure that will reduce urinary symptoms caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). PAE involves the targeted release of microscopic particles into the arteries that feed the prostate gland, reducing its blood supply. […]
Fallopian Tube Recanalisation (FTR) is a non-surgical procedure to clear any blockages in the fallopian tubes. It is used to treat infertility caused by blocked fallopian tubes, and can potentially improve a woman’s chances of conception. Please send us a message if you would like to learn more about FTR, or visit our website for […]
