Endoscopic vascular preparation for hemodialysis access.

Endoscopic vascular preparation for hemodialysis access is a procedure used to prepare a patient's blood vessels for dialysis. In this minimally invasive technique, a doctor uses a thin tube with a camera (endoscope) to examine and map the veins where dialysis will occur. This helps identify the best site for creating a connection, called a fistula, between an artery and vein, ensuring better blood flow for dialysis treatment. It's an important step to ensure the patient receives effective and safe dialysis in the future.
