French term

embolisation à froid

French to English Medical Medical (general) aneurysm embolisation
I have a very short patient report of an abdominal and pelvic CT scan, following up on pseudoaneurysms developed following femoral artery catheterisation. I am stuck on the term "à froid" in the following text:

SCANNER ABDOMINOPELVIEN AVEC INJECTION + SCANNER ABDOMINOPELVIEN NON INJECTE
INDICATION :
Embolisation à froid.
Douleur en regard du point de ponction.

All help appreciated

Thanks to you all for your input, I used elective

I'm sure you're right, but it was a glaring omission from the question. If you can provide some references, you've got my vote!
Drmanu49 Mar 31, 2020:
Nothing literal here Phil it is elective or planned as opposed to emergency.
philgoddard Mar 31, 2020:
Have you checked out the literal translation?
