Invasive Procedures

  • Cardiac Catheterization
  • Coronary Angiography
    A coronary angiography, also referred to as a coronary arteriography, is used to determine the amount of blockage in the arteries that supply the heart. Before X-rays are taken, a dye is injected into the bloodstream. On the X-ray pictures, the dye helps to show if the arteries are damaged.
  • Transesophageal Echocardiogram (TEE)
    Transesophageal Echocardiogram (TEE) is used to provide a clear image of the heart structure. It is a type of echocardiogram. For the procedure, a tube is gently passed through the throat and into the esophagus. This places the transducer right behind the heart, and the close proximity produces very good images. The specialists at Heartland Cardiovascular Center are recognized as the foremost authority in cardiac imaging.
