MODEL RELEASED. Varicose vein treatment. Patient being given tumescent anaesthesia in their leg (centre),whilst undergoing treatment for varicose veins. An ultrasound probe (lower right) is being used to help guide treatment of the vein using an endovenous laser (EVL,not seen). Tumescent anaesthesia is used to deliver the anaesthetic directly to the area surrounding the vein. EVL treatment uses a laser that is inserted into and then withdrawn down the affected vein at a set rate,heating it from within and effectively sealing it as it passes | |
