Recent years have seen a rapidly increasing movement of endovascular treatment and procedures away from hospital settings to outpatient venues (office-based labs). New technologies offer enhanced capabilities that make it easier and more cost-effective to treat even complex cases on an outpatient basis. Office-Based Endovascular Centers synthesizes the entire process of operating an office-based practice - from regulation and legal issues through to business models and optimal endovascular procedures - helping you ensure the best the possible outcomes for your patients.
