• Bone Scan

  A scan that screens for damage in the bones, the spread of cancer and potential bone infections and trauma.

  Learn About Bone Scan

• HIDA Scan

  A hepatobiliary scan captures images of the liver, gallbladder and bile ducts to help diagnose medical conditions.

  Learn About HIDA Scan

• Cardiac MRI

  A simple imaging procedure using radio waves and magnets to capture detailed pictures of the heart and blood vessels.

• Diagnostic Cardiac Catheterization

  The process of introducing catheters into veins or arteries, then into either the left or right side of the heart.

  Learn About Diagnostic Cardiac Catheterization

• Diagnostic Peripheral Angiography

  A test that uses X-rays and dye to find narrowed or blocked areas in the arteries that supply blood to your legs.

  Learn About Diagnostic Peripheral Angiography

• Interventional Services

  This is a branch of cardiology that focuses on catheter-based treatment of structural heart diseases, including angioplasty and stent.

  Learn About Interventional Services

• Angioplasty/Stent

  This opens the coronary arteries that supply blood to the heart. A stent is a tube that expands inside the coronary artery.

  Learn About Angioplasty/Stent

• Atherectomy

  This surgery treatment uses a catheter with a sharp blade to remove plaques of fatty material from blood vessels.

  Learn About Atherectomy

• Peripheral Angioplasty

  The blocked area of the peripheral artery is removed through an inflated balloon within a catheter.

  Learn About Peripheral Angioplasty

• PFO and ASD Closures

  A catheter-based closure of the patient foramen ovale (PFO) and atrial septal defect (ASD).

  Learn About PFO and ASD Closures

• Retrievable IVC Filters

  These are small, cage-like devices inserted into the inferior vena cava in order to capture blood clots.

  Learn About Retrievable IVC Filters

• Electrophysiology Services

  A specialty branch of physiology concerned with the study, diagnosis and treatment of heart rhythm disorders.

  Learn About Electrophysiology Services

• Ablation

  A procedure used to scar or destroy a small area of tissue in the heart that is causing abnormal rhythm.

  Learn About Ablation

• Pacemaker Implantation

  A generator is placed on the left side of the chest, attached to a wire guided through a blood vessel to the heart.

  Learn About Pacemaker Implantation

• ICD-Defibrillator Implantation

  This is a pager-sized device placed into the heart ventricles to help your heart keep beating effectively.

  Learn About ICD-Defibrillator Implantation

• Biventricular Pacemaker Implantation

  The lead tip of this specialized pacemaker is implanted and attached to the heart, helping heart failure patients.

  Learn About Biventricular Pacemaker Implantation

• Pacemaker Lead Extraction

  Lead extraction through the femoral or subclavian vein.

  Learn About Pacemaker Lead Extraction

• Laser Lead Extraction

  Special catheter-guided lasers help free the lead from the surrounding scar tissue.

  Learn About Laser Lead Extraction

• Tilt Table Testing

  Patients lie on a table that is slowly tilted upward, used to measure blood pressure, heart rate and gravity’s effect on the heart.

  Learn About Tilt Table Testing

• Peripheral Ultrasound

  A water-based gel is applied to your legs, and an ultrasound probe is used to scan the arteries in your legs.

  Learn About Peripheral Ultrasound
