Mayo Clinic doctors and surgeons also study minimally invasive techniques in dural arteriovenous fistula surgery. Read more about research in neurology and neurologic surgery. Mayo Clinic researchers study advanced treatments such as Onyx and other liquid embolic agents. These liquids are injected into the dAVF to form a clot and block the fistula. Recent research includes examinations of the effectiveness and impact of these liquid embolism treatments combined with earlier detection in improving patient outcomes.

The patient comes first. So the mission and research here is to advance how we can best help the patient, how to make sure the patient comes first in care. So in many ways, it's a cycle. It can start with as simple as an idea worked on in a laboratory, brought to the patient bedside, and if everything goes right — and let's say it's helpful or beneficial — then brought on as a standard approach. And I think that is one of the unique characteristics of Mayo's approach to research — that patient-centeredness — that really helps to put it in its own spotlight.
