A non-surgical procedure that temporarily blocks excess blood vessels in the knee is delivering lasting pain relief for osteoarthritis patients — and 80% of participants in a new clinical study reported significant reductions in knee pain that held for at least a full year.
The treatment, called genicular artery embolization (GAE), uses microscopic gelatin particles to clog unnecessary blood vessels that grow around arthritic knees, fueling inflammation and irritating nerves.
Researchers say GAE could fill a critical gap for millions of adults whose pain medications and steroid injections have stopped working but who aren't ready — or eligible — for a total knee replacement.

It's getting s***tier because some d***head who's never f***ing taken care of a patient in his life decided, “Oh no, actually, instead of a human patient, this is now a commodity.”
Wendy's and Jersey Mike's have gotten worse — and @stavvybaby knows why:

Does prostate artery embolization change ejaculation?
Some men notice a decrease in volume, while others don’t. Think of it like a sponge: when the prostate shrinks, fluid production may also shrink slightly.
The important part? Many men experience major relief from urinary symptoms without major surgery.

An innovative approach that had a real impact on our prostate cancer patient’s QOL. PAE also converted 52% of patients initially contraindicated for brachytherapy/SBRT without an impact on local control!
Amazing work @VaseemKhatri !
