Interventional Cardiology

Interventional cardiology refers to various non-surgical, minimally invasive, catheter-based treatments for coronary artery and peripheral vascular diseases. These procedures can be used to relieve symptoms of poor circulation in the heart, legs or elsewhere in the body.

Testing & Procedures

• State-of-the-art techniques for procedures including:
  • >95% radial artery access for coronary angiography
  • >90% tibial artery access for lower extremity angiography
  • >80% use of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) or optical coherence tomography (OCT)
  • >95% same-day-discharge for elective coronary and peripheral vascular interventions
• Diagnostic and interventional coronary angiography
• Diagnostic and interventional peripheral vascular angiography
• Ankle-brachial index
• Vascular imaging including CT or MRI or ultrasonography (e.g., aortic, subclavian, carotid, renal, and leg arteries and veins)
• Transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography
• Cardiac rhythm monitoring
• Direct current cardioversion
• Exercise and pharmacologic cardiac stress testing
• Genetic testing for inherited cardiovascular diseases
