Techniques to diagnose heart issues

A small pain or we can say an acute/chronic heart issue can become evident during our daily routine work or physical work or through a particular set of symptoms. At this time expert diagnosis is required to determine the appropriate course of treatment.

Dana Shivam is a cardiology hospital which has access to the latest advanced diagnostic equipment and we provide best heart treatment as have vast range of diagnostic services for heart issues for our patients.

Various techniques currently in use at Dana Shivam Heart & Superspeciality Hospital to diagnose heart disease:

Angiography

Angiography is a medical imaging technique, in this a tube or catheter is inserted into blood vessels and is guided towards the heart with the help of x-ray imaging technique. After this, to clearly visualize the arteries DYE is introduced inside and digital cine films or we can say angiograms (medical term) are recorded and analyzed. For the patients having coronary artery disease, Dana Shivam Heart & Super Speciality Hospital is the best heart hospital for them as it has dedicated advance care center for Coronary Angiography and Dr. Sunil Kumar Garssa have done Radial Angiography in more than 90% cases.

Angioplasty

Angioplasty is an endovascular, minimally invasive technique to widen the obstructed or narrowed artery or veins .In this procedure a deflated balloon connected to a catheter is inserted into blood vessel with the help of guided wire and then balloon is inflated to a fixed size. The balloon pushes expansion of the blood vessel and the muscular wall, allowing an improved blood flow through them. After this at the time of ballooning a Stent is inserted to ensure the blood vessel to remain open. After the whole process balloon is deflated and withdrawn. In Dana Shivam Heart & Super Speciality Hospital, angioplasty through Radial route is done in more than 80% cases , this is the reason why patients of Dr. Sunil Kumar Garssa call him the best cardiologist in India.

Chest X-Ray

· Infant & Pediatric ECHO

Electrocardiography (ECG)

Stress Testing (TMT)
