Interventional Cardiology
Interventional Cardiology
Interventional Cardiology is a subspecialty of cardiology that focuses on the diagnosis and medical treatment of adult patients with acute and chronic forms of cardiovascular disease via minimally-invasive catheter-based therapy. Techniques include, but are not limited to, balloon angioplasty, coronary stent deployment, balloon valvuloplasty, and valve repair and replacement. These catheter-based interventions minimize pain, risk and recovery for many conditions.
The Providence Heart Institute has a robust, multi-disciplinary valve clinic and structural heart program that is the most experienced and largest in the state of Montana.
Delivering cutting-edge, collaborative care
Our experienced, board-certified interventional cardiologists employ the very latest technology in two, full-service catheterization suites and a specially-equipped hybrid suite for performing percutaneous valve replacements. Our interventional cardiologists work closely with their cardiology and cardiothoracic surgeon colleagues to deliver comprehensive, individualized care to Montanans.
