UVA Health Prince William Medical Center has recently expanded its services by introducing TransCarotid Artery Revascularization (TCAR), a cutting-edge, minimally invasive procedure aimed at preventing strokes. This innovative treatment is designed to address carotid artery disease, which can lead to serious cardiovascular complications.

TCAR allows for the safe and efficient revascularization of the carotid arteries, using a unique approach that significantly reduces the risk of complications often associated with traditional methods. Patients undergoing this procedure can expect a quicker recovery time, enabling them to return to their daily activities sooner.

The introduction of TCAR at UVA Health Prince William Medical Center reflects the institution's commitment to providing advanced medical care and enhancing patient outcomes. This new service not only offers hope to those at risk of stroke but also positions the medical center as a leader in innovative vascular treatments within the community.
