EDUCATIONAL QUALIFICATIONS :

PRESENT APPOINTMENTS :

Honorary Consultant Interventional Neurologist at

• King Edward Memorial Hospital, Pune (from Aug. 2000 till date)

• Jehangir Hospital, Pune (from Dec 2003 till date)

Visiting Interventional Neurologist at :

• VINS hospital, Baroda

• Apollo Hospital, Ahmedabad

• Sterling Hospital, Ahmedabad

• Ayush hospital, Vijayawada

• K.G. Hospital, Coimbatore

SPECIAL INTEREST :

Apart from Clinical Neurology, my focus is on Interventional Neurology, i.e endovascular treatment in stroke, both ischaemic & hemorrhagic. This frontier branch of the Neurosciences includes the following procedures:

• Digital subtraction angiography for the diagnosis of cerebral aneurysms, cerebral/ spinal Arteriovenous malformations, stenosis of cervical or intracranial cerebral vessels, cerebral venous sinus thrombosis etc.

• Intra-arterial thrombolysis & mechanical thrombectomy for acute ischaemic stroke.

• Endovascular occlusion (‘coiling’) of intracranial aneurysms.

• Angioplasty & stenting of extracranial vascular stenosis.

• Angioplasty & stenting of intracranial vascular stenosis.

• Endovascular occlusion (‘embolisation’) of cerebral/ spinal AV malformations.

• Local (‘intra-sinus’) thrombolysis for severe cerebral venous sinus thrombosis.

• Pre-op embolisation of highly vascular cerebral/ spinal/ ENT tumors.

From Jan. 2004 till April 2015, I have independently performed about 5000 diagnostic DSAs & about 1500 major interventions.
