This method utilizes a 3:1 emulsion of Lipiodol® (a transient embolic agent that penetrates distally to about 30 microns) and Optiray® to target the genicular arteries supplying areas of synovial hypervascularity and neo-angiogenesis. The embolic effect is temporary-lasting roughly 10 minutes-after which angiographic imaging shows resolution of the embolization with no damage to the surrounding skin, tendon, or bone. The endpoint of the procedure is to achieve complete stasis in the targeted vessels. 20 participants will be randomly allocated to this arm.",[13,14,15],"Procedure: Genicular Artery Embolization","Device: Lipiodol","Procedure: Simple angiogram",{"label":17,"type":18,"description":19,"interventionNames":20},"Sham Arm","SHAM_COMPARATOR","Participants assigned to the sham group undergo a similar preparatory process, including angiography and catheterization of all genicular arteries.
