Doctor Claudia Lorena Martínez Higueros
Over 20 years of experience in interventional radiology, complex treatments, and comprehensive patient care.
Specialist in Diagnostic Radiology and holder of a Master’s degree in Public Health and Hospital Management.
With an international career in leading hospitals and reference centers, my work focuses on advanced diagnostics and image-guided therapeutic procedures.
My approach combines technical precision, medical innovation, and a deep commitment to each patient.
Specialties
High-specialty imaging diagnostics
Medical imaging is the cornerstone of accurate and early diagnosis. Using advanced techniques such as ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and fluoroscopy, I perform specialized studies that allow for the precise identification of abnormalities in organs, tissues, and blood vessels.
Minimally invasive vascular procedures
Through endovascular techniques, I treat arterial and venous diseases without the need for open surgery. Using catheters, microwires, and contrast agents under radiological guidance, it is possible to access the vascular system and address critical conditions with precision and safety.
Emergency care for severe conditions
In medical emergencies, speed and technique are crucial. My interventions focus on patients experiencing critical events such as ruptured aneurysms, post-surgical hemorrhages, complex trauma, or life-threatening accidents.
Interventional treatments in oncology, nephrology, and gynecology
I actively collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to treat complex conditions through image-guided interventional techniques. In oncology patients, I perform tumor embolizations to reduce blood flow to the tumor, facilitating its treatment and improving the overall prognosis.
Pediatric interventional radiology
Caring for children with serious illnesses requires a highly specialized technical and human approach. I work closely with pediatric surgeons and pediatric oncologists to place central venous access, nutritional catheters, or drains in patients who require long-term treatments such as chemotherapy or advanced nutritional support.
Peripheral circulation and limb salvage
Many patients with diabetes or peripheral arterial disease face the risk of amputation due to insufficient blood flow. Through interventional techniques, it is possible to revascularize affected arteries, improve circulation, and prevent limb loss.
