In the cardiac cath lab, we perform lifesaving heart catheterization designed to open clogged arteries. Heart catheterization is a low-risk, 30- to 60-minute procedure to diagnose or treat cardiovascular disease. Through minimally invasive intervention, our team can correct coronary artery blockages with balloon angioplasty and coronary artery stenting, including percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty, coronary artery stenting and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Some of the cardiovascular and heart conditions that heart catheterization can identify and potentially treat are: Cardiomyopathy Congenital heart disease Coronary artery disease Fractional flow reserve (FFR) Heart valve problems
