As reported by Hindustan Times, Khan was under the care of senior consultant Dr Jaleel Parkar and underwent a procedure called Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA) following his admission last month. For the unversed, this diagnostic procedure is used to detect conditions related to blood vessels in the brain, including aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations and blockages.

Doctors had earlier stated that Salim Khan had suffered a minor haemorrhage. Dr Parkar was quoted saying, “There was minimal brain haemorrhage. A small procedure was done this morning, and it was accomplished. He is fine and stable, but is still on a ventilator. By tomorrow, hopefully, we will take him off the ventilator. All in all, he’s doing quite well. Keeping his age in mind, the recovery time is longer.”
