Vascular Services

World-Class Technology
HRMC's Vascular Lab features the state-of-the-art Siemens AXIOM Artis dTC radiographic equipment along with the GE MAC-IT and HeartLabs Image and Data Management Systems. The diagnostic information acquired with these advanced devices allows vascular surgeons to determine the appropriate treatment choices. Blockages may be treated immediately utilizing angioplasty and stenting techniques, or it may be determined that the patient requires a surgical intervention to be performed by one of our board certified vascular surgeons. For more information, call (908) 441-1301.

Vascular Lab
Hackettstown Regional Medical Center's board certified vascular surgeons make skillful use of revolutionary techniques and technologies to diagnose and treat diseases of the arteries and veins that can affect virtually any area of the body. Blocked peripheral arteries can cause severe pain and delayed healing of wounds. Left untreated, blocked arteries can result in a stroke. Our doctors use peripheral vascular angioplasty and stent implants to treat blockages and life-threatening aneurysms. Doctors perform these procedures through a small puncture in the femoral artery, greatly reducing recovery time and enhancing patient comfort.
