Speeding Patient Recovery and Changing Lives Quickly returning patients to their lives by providing the most advanced treatments has been the mission driving Dr. Micev’s work at the Hand Center of Nevada in Las Vegas. That goal led him to explore more minimally invasive treatment options for carpal tunnel release (CTR) and trigger finger release (TFR). He started offering CTR with real-time ultrasound guidance (UGCTR) two years ago, and soon after, added TFR with real-time ultrasound guidance (UGTFR) to his practice as well. The transition from traditional open surgery to minimally invasive ultrasound-guided techniques was monumental for Dr. Micev and life-changing for his patients. “It was a dramatic shift, taking a procedure known for being done in an operating room to performing it in an office setting with very fast recovery,” Dr. Micev says. “I've had patients back at work, bowling, or playing tennis within days of a procedure performed using UltraGuideCTR™ or UltraGuideTFR™.” Read the rest of Dr. Micev's story
