Our cardiac catheterization labs - including a new facility constructed in 2000 - feature two all digital labs with advanced technology for diagnosis and treatment of patients with heart disease.

Some treatments offered in the Cath Lab:

• balloon angioplasty or valvuloplasty: to open narrowed or blocked vessels
• intercoronary stenting (also know as drug eluting or coated stent): a device is implanted in the vessel for improved blood flow
• rotablation, in which a device is inserted into the vessel to break up calcified deposits
• "clot-busting" thrombolytics medications: used to break down blood clots in the heart or blood vessels.

For patients who speak a language other than English, interpreters are available. Our cath lab also features a comfortable waiting area for friends and family members.
