Angiography, angioplasty and stenting are minimally procedures that help diagnose and treat narrowed or blocked blood vessels in patients with diabetic foot and peripheral arterial disease. Angiography gives pictures of blood flow and helps locate places where circulation is low. Angioplasty uses a balloon to open narrowed arteries. If needed a stent can be put in to keep the artery open and boost blood flow to the foot. Restoring circulation supports wound healing lessens symptoms. Lowers the risk of serious complications for patients chosen carefully.
Prof. Dr. Zaheer Sherazi offers interventional radiology care for patients with diabetic foot and poor lower‑leg circulation. I have seen patients who benefit from careful assessment, with clinical tests and vascular imaging to find where arterial disease is worst and to choose the best treatment. With image‑guided methods, angioplasty and stenting give a focused less invasive choice that improves blood supply and helps manage diabetic foot problems overall.
