Heart & Vascular Center : Services : Cardiac Catheterization
MUSC’s board certified cardiologists are specially trained in cardiac catheterization procedures that help diagnose and treat heart disease.  Cardiac catheterization (also called angiogram) provides diagnostic images of the heart’s arteries and its function.  This procedure is used to evaluate patients for surgery and to perform non-surgical treatments.

Our cardiac catheterization labs offer a complete range of basic, complex and emergency procedures, including:

 Balloon angioplasty
 Coronary stenting
 Drug-eluting stents (DES)
 Laser and rotational atherectomy
 Thrombectomy
 Peripheral vascular balloon angioplasty and stenting
 Aortic and mitral valvuloplasty
 Percutaneous closure of atrial septal defect (ASD) and patent foramen ovale

For more information, click on the procedure name in the list above and you’ll be linked to our Heart Health Library.
