Our vascular medicine team has the expertise to provide a full spectrum of care, including:
-
Diagnostic technology – Heart and vascular specialists utilize modern imaging technology such as computed tomography angiography (CTA) and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), or a minimally invasive coronary angiogram to evaluate and diagnose heart and vascular disease.
-
Risk-factor management – Diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity and unhealthful habits such as a sedentary lifestyle, smoking and improper diet can contribute to vascular disease. We offer educational and preventive-screening services to help promote healthful practices that contribute to heart and vascular health. A multidisciplinary team can provide a treatment program to manage risk factors to minimize the risk of developing or aggravating vascular disease.
-
Surgical interventions – Minimally invasive catheter-assisted techniques such as angioplasty, atherectomy, and stent placement can be used to remove plaque and reopen blocked arteries. Vascular specialists use minimally invasive procedures whenever possible.
