IRB Approved Embo Registry

The National Registry for Artery Embolization (Embo Registry) is an IRB-approved, multi-site clinical registry dedicated to advancing data-driven insights in vascular and musculoskeletal health. This ongoing research initiative brings together participating sites across the country to collect real-world clinical data from patients receiving both interventional and non-interventional treatments.

Advancing Embolic Therapy Through Real-World Evidence

Established under the direction of Dr. Siddhartha Rao and the VSNC Research Team, the Embo Registry supports clinical research, procedural refinement, and improved patient care.

The registry was developed to better understand treatment outcomes, procedural efficacy, and long-term patient quality of life across various therapeutic areas. All data collection and analysis are conducted in compliance with Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and HIPAA regulations to ensure patient privacy, data integrity, and ethical research conduct. Each participating site receives comprehensive training in standardized data collection procedures to maintain consistency and reliability.

As a cornerstone for data-driven discovery, the Embo Registry bridges clinical experience and research advancement—enabling collaboration to improve outcomes, refine techniques, and establish best practices for embolic interventions.
