Uterine Fibroid Embolization is a non-surgical treatment option that provides relief from fibroids without the risks of invasive surgery. UFE offers many benefits to patients seeking alternatives to a hysterectomy or myomectomy. The procedure involves interventional radiologists using imaging to guide a catheter through a small incision in the groin (femoral artery) or the wrist (radial artery) to the artery feeding the fibroid and blocking the uterine arteries that supply blood to the fibroid.
