Our Services

  • Paediatric Cardiology

    Pediatric Cardiology deals with diagnosing and treating diseases of infants and children.

    ·        Out patient clinics on all Monday and Wednesday

    ·        Echocardiogram to diagnose complex congenital heart diseases

    ·        Cardiac Catheterization

    ·        Pediatric ASD/VSD/PDA interventions and coiling

  • CT Coronary Angiography

    CT Angiograms are used to diagnose a variety of heart conditions. It can show narrowed or blocked areas of a blood vessel.

  • Cardiac MRI

    Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging is a non-invasive assessment of the Cardiovascular system. A heart MRI scans the heart to measure its functioning and how it moves.

  • Coronary Angiogram ( Catheter Based)

    Coronary Catheterization is a minimally invasive procedure used for both diagnostic and interventional purposes.

  • Coronary Angioplasty And Stent Implantation

    Angioplasty involves placing a stent to keep the artery open, coated with medication. A Coronary Angioplasty takes between 30 minutes and 2 hours, and involves lying on an X-ray table and being given a local anaesthetic.

  • SPECT and PET Studies Of The Heart

    SPECT and PET provide metabolic and functional information, combining with CT and MRI. PET scan images have a higher resolution than cardiac SPECT scans, allowing Radiologists to detect changes to the heart's blood flow at a granular level.

  • Cardiac Electrophysiology

    Cardiac Electrophysiology  involves diagnosing and treating electrical problems of the heart. The Department of Cardiology has a  48 channel St. Jude Electrophysiology System, useful for electrophysiological studies and ablation.

    o   EP studies

    o   Radiofrequency Ablation

    o   Pacemaker Insertion

    o   Left Bundle pacing

    o   Cardiac resynchronisation therapy

    o   ICD implantation
