Are you living with ...Frequent urination, especially at night
Weak urine stream
Urgency to urinate
Incomplete bladder emptying
Urinary retention
Discomfort or pain during urination
We perform a non-surgical procedure to treat symptoms associated with an enlarged prostate.
Precision Procedure
Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE)Prostate Artery Embolization is a specialized technique offered in our range of Precision Procedures. This method involves precisely reducing blood flow to particular areas of the prostate that are causing symptoms. By targeting these areas, the procedure helps shrink the prostate, ease urinary issues, and enhance overall quality of life, all without requiring major surgery.

Precision Relief Mapping
Precision relief mapping allows us to create a detailed blueprint, identifying the unique blood vessels supplying your prostate. Treatment is deployed precisely to these locations using Prostate Artery Embolization for maximal relief with minimal intervention.
Precision Procedures
With the detailed map in hand, we perform a gentle, precision guided procedure, targeting the specific problem area while minimizing damage to surrounding structures and tissue.
Personalized Treatment
Precision relief mapping with an angiogram allows us to create a detailed blueprint of the blood vessels supplying your prostate. By identifying the specific arteries that supply blood to the enlarged prostate, we can precisely target these vessels during Prostate Artery Embolization. This personalized approach ensures that the embolization is tailored to your unique anatomy, maximizing relief with minimal intervention.
Rapid Recovery
Recovery from Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE) is generally considered to be rapid, especially when compared to traditional surgical options like transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) or open prostatectomy. Patients typically experience minimal discomfort, shorter hospital stays, and quicker return to normal activities.

Why Benign Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH) Usually Worsens
- Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a condition characterized by the non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland.
- As the prostate enlarges, it can gradually compress the urethra, which passes through the center of the prostate. This compression obstructs the flow of urine, leading to increased resistance during urination.
- Over time, this obstruction causes the bladder muscle to work harder to expel urine, which can lead to bladder muscle thickening and weakening. The increased bladder pressure and reduced urine flow contribute to a range of urinary symptoms, including difficulty starting urination, a weak urine stream, and the sensation of incomplete bladder emptying.
- As BPH progresses, the prostate continues to grow, exacerbating these symptoms. The ongoing enlargement can also cause the bladder to become overactive, leading to urinary urgency and frequency, particularly at night (nocturia).
- The persistent and worsening symptoms of BPH often become more challenging to manage without intervention, as the mechanical obstruction and the body’s compensatory responses to the enlarged prostate can further compromise urinary function and quality of life.
