Knee pain is a common problem that affects millions of people. As the cartilage in your knee wears down over time, the bones rub, causing inflammation, stiffness, and pain. Genicular Artery Embolization (GAE) is a non-surgical treatment for people living with chronic knee pain caused by osteoarthritis.
This minimally invasive procedure uses advanced, image-guided technology to reduce excess blood flow to the inflamed areas of the knee, helping to decrease pain, stiffness, and swelling over time.
As one of the few practices in Connecticut offering GAE, this procedure is performed by our board-certified and fellowship-trained interventional radiologists at our Farmington outpatient clinic. GAE provides an effective alternative for patients seeking relief from knee pain without the need for joint replacement surgery.
