About Our Advanced Capabilities

Monmouth Medical Center is the first hospital in Monmouth and Ocean counties to introduce uterine fibroid embolization (UFE), a procedure that
shrinks fibroid tumors by blocking their blood supply. Fibroids draw blood directly from the uterine artery, and through UFE, these growths are “starved” by blocking the blood flow to the fibrous tissue. The procedure has been performed for more than 20 years for nonfibroid procedures including
postpartum or postoperative bleeding, ectopic pregnancy and pelvic artery malformations.

It has benefited thousands of women around the world, and a growing body of international medical research indicates that UFE is a viable and
highly successful treatment alternative to hysterectomy and other surgical and nonsurgical treatment options. The Department of Radiology at
Monmouth Medical Center recognizes the need to offer the most-advanced diagnostic and treatment options, and is dedicated to providing the latest
techniques, such as UFE.
