Services
Endovascular balloon angioplasty and stent implantation to widen stenotic arterial segments and restore blood flow.
Diagnostic catheter-based assessment of coronary anatomy, intracardiac pressures and cardiac function; enables sampling and intra-procedural interventions.
Diagnostic transthoracic echocardiography using ultrasound to evaluate cardiac structure, valve function and ventricular performance.
Radionuclide imaging to evaluate myocardial perfusion, function and infarct localization during stress/rest protocols.
Implantation of cardiac pacemakers and provision of peri-procedural counseling and outpatient device follow-up.
Supervised exercise testing with ECG and physiologic monitoring to evaluate ischemia, arrhythmia and exercise tolerance.
