Diagnostic Services:

  • Angiography: Detailed imaging to visualise blood vessels and identify blockages.
  • Intravascular Imaging: Advanced imaging techniques to assess the condition of blood vessels from within.
  • Physiological Assessments: Evaluations to understand the functional impact of coronary artery disease.

Interventional Services:

  • Stenting: Placement of stents to keep arteries open and improve blood flow.
  • Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA): Minimally invasive procedure to widen blocked coronary arteries.
  • Complex Coronary Interventions: Specialised techniques for challenging coronary conditions.

Pulmonary Assessments and Interventions

We offer a range of services for comprehensive pulmonary care:

  • Pulmonary Angiography: Imaging of the pulmonary arteries to diagnose and evaluate pulmonary conditions.
  • Pulmonary Angioplasty: Procedure to treat narrowed or blocked pulmonary arteries.
  • Acute Pulmonary Embolism Interventions: Rapid interventions to address life-threatening blood clots in the lungs.

Haemodynamic Studies

Our lab performs detailed studies to assess heart function:

  • Left and Right Heart Studies: In-depth evaluations of the heart’s left and right chambers to diagnose and manage heart conditions.

Pacing and Cardiac Devices

We provide a full spectrum of pacing and cardiac device services:

  • Temporary and Permanent Pacemakers: Devices to regulate heart rhythm.
  • Left Bundle Branch Area Pacing (LBBAP): Advanced pacing technique for enhanced cardiac function.
  • Implantable Cardiac Defibrillators (ICD): Devices to prevent sudden cardiac death by correcting life-threatening arrhythmias.
  • Cardiac Resynchronisation Therapy (CRT): Therapy to improve heart function in patients with heart failure.
