An interventional neurologist in Lahore specializes in diagnosing and treating neurological conditions involving the blood vessels of the brain and spinal cord. Using advanced imaging and minimally invasive catheter-based procedures, an interventional neurologist can provide specialized treatment for selected neurovascular conditions.
Patients may need to consult an interventional neurologist if diagnostic scans reveal a brain aneurysm, arteriovenous malformation (AVM), narrowed brain or neck artery, vascular blockage, or another abnormality affecting blood flow to the brain. Interventional neurologists also play an important role in the emergency treatment of selected patients with acute ischemic stroke.
Prof. Dr. Qasim Bashir provides interventional neurology and neurointervention in Lahore, including cerebral angiography, mechanical thrombectomy, aneurysm coiling and stenting, AVM embolization, carotid and intracranial stenting, venous sinus stenting, and other advanced neurovascular procedures.
During a consultation, the patient’s symptoms, medical history, imaging findings, and overall health are carefully reviewed. This helps determine whether medication, observation, further diagnostic testing, a minimally invasive intervention, or another treatment approach may be appropriate.
Sudden facial drooping, arm weakness, slurred speech, vision loss, severe dizziness, loss of balance, or an intense unexplained headache should never be ignored and may require emergency medical assessment.
Patients searching for an interventional neurologist in Lahore or specialized neurointervention in Lahore can book a consultation with Prof. Dr. Qasim Bashir at Bashir NeuroSpine Institute, Lahore.
