Special Interests
Dr Hamed Nejadhamzeeigilani Consultant in Diagnostic and Interventional.
Neuroradiology Dr Hamed Nejadhamzeeigilani is a Consultant Neuroradiologist at Leeds Teaching Hospitals, working within the Neurosciences team.
His role combines advanced diagnostic imaging with minimally invasive, image-guided treatments for patients with a wide range of brain, spine, and blood vessel conditions.
Neurovascular Treatments Dr Nejadhamzeeigilani provides specialist care for complex blood vessel problems in the brain and spine, including: Brain aneurysms – treated using advanced techniques such as coil embolisation, balloon or stent assistance, and innovative intrasaccular devices.
Stroke
Performing mechanical thrombectomy to restore blood flow in blocked brain arteries.
Narrowed brain and neck vessels
Using angioplasty and stenting to improve circulation.
Brain venous stenting
For patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension, helping to relieve raised pressure around the brain.
Vascular malformations
Treating arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) and dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs).
Subdural haematomas
Using middle meningeal artery embolisation to reduce bleeding.
Pre-surgical planning
Embolisation of brain and spinal tumours to make surgery safer with less blood loss.
Spine Treatments
In addition to vascular procedures, Dr Nejadhamzeeigilani also provides treatments for spinal conditions, including:
- Nerve root blocks – for pain relief in spine-related nerve conditions
