Cardiology

Cardiology is a branch of medicine that provides diagnosis and treatment for cardiovascular diseases. Our cardiologists can diagnose cardiovascular disorders using blood tests, cardiac stress tests, echocardiography, electrocardiography, and Doppler ultrasounds.

Symptoms that may indicate a heart problem include:

• Dyspnea (breathing disorders/difficulties)
• Dizziness
• Chest pain
• Changes in heart rate or rhythm
• Circulatory disorders
• High blood pressure

The clinic also offers medical services in Cardio-oncology.

Senior cardiology specialists with competence in special, advanced Doppler echocardiography, with specific applications for the oncological patient, involving the measurement of global longitudinal systolic strain of the left ventricle using the speckle tracking technique – GLS.

The cardio-oncological consultation consists of the initial assessment of cardiotoxicity risk, as well as clinical, paraclinical, and imaging monitoring of oncological patients during treatment administration according to the protocol, by diagnosing cardiovascular complications induced by oncological therapy (radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or immunotherapy).

We offer advanced imaging using high-performance General Electric ultrasound equipment, which allows for general and advanced ultrasounds involving complex, advanced measurements performed in cases of severe valvular diseases, preoperative and postoperative evaluations, cardiomyopathies, congenital diseases, myocarditis, and the evaluation of the oncological patient.
