At Curis Life Clinic, Andheri West, we provide precise and safe cardiac catheterization—an essential procedure for evaluating heart function and identifying coronary artery blockages. Our expert cardiologists conduct this test using advanced, minimally invasive techniques to diagnose and treat various heart conditions, right here in your local neighborhood.
What is Cardiac Catheterization?
Cardiac catheterization, also known as heart cath or coronary catheterization, involves inserting a thin, flexible tube (catheter) into a blood vessel and guiding it to the heart. This test helps assess how well your heart is functioning, check for blockages in coronary arteries, and determine the need for further treatment like angioplasty or stenting.
When is Cardiac Catheterization Needed?
You may be recommended a cardiac cath test if you have:
- Chest pain (angina)
- Shortness of breath
- Unexplained fatigue or dizziness
- Abnormal ECG or 2D Echo results
- History of heart attack
- Suspected coronary artery disease
