Cardiology

Cardiology is the study of the heart, which deals with the structure, function and diseases of the heart. We diagnose and treat diseases of the heart and blood vessels, such as cardiac arrhythmias, heart valve defects, heart failure or hypertension.

Diagnosis and therapy of diseases of the heart and blood vessels:

• Arrhythmia
• Valvular heart disease
• heart failure
• Coronary artery disease
• Hypertension
• Pre- and postoperative examinations
• Holter / -Blutdruckmessung
• Exercise ECG including resting ECG and spiroergometry
• Echocardiography
• Stress echocardiography (heart ultrasound with load)
• vascular Assessment

In collaboration with the University Hospital of the LMU city center (24-hour emergency care):

• Left and right heart catheterization
• coronary angiography
• PTCA (distension of constricted coronary arteries)
• Pacemaker check
• defibrillator controls
