Invasive Cardiology - Diagnostic Procedures
Invasive cardiology is a type of procedure where a surgeon performs a minimally-invasive surgery to treat or identify any structural or electrical abnormalities within the heart structure.
At Aster G Madegowda Hospital we offer various types of invasive diagnostic procedures such as -
- Coronary Angiogram – both transradial and transfemoral
- Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS), for complex interventions
- Fractional flow reserve (FFR) – helps with infunctional assessment and physiological treatment of blockages in blood vessels
- Cardiac catheterization to record pressures and oxygen saturation in various chambers of the heart to assess patients with congenital heart diseases
