This department has an Angiography Room with a Siemens angiography, model Koroscop with characteristics for obtaining high resolution digital images, roadmaps, and digital movies (sequences of up to 30 screens per second), ideal for heart studies.
The equipment comes with a polygraph for measuring inter-arterial pressure and a contrast medium injector for handling exact injection volumes at established and required pressures for certain studies.
This equipment is of vital importance for invasive heart studies, heart catheter placement, angioplasties, arteriographies and flebographies, complementing the diagnostic and interventionist radiology results in support of the proper management and treatment of patients.
These acquisitions allow for the precise diagnosis of the degree and severity of vascular diseases, contributing to the improvement of the quality and quantity of life for patients.
In addition, the hospital has acquired a General Electric ultrasound, model Vivid 3 for echocardiograms and echo-stress tests for diagnostic and heart intervention studies.
