Interventional Cardiology

Frye Regional Medical Center’s experienced heart catheterization team performs procedures using balloons, stents, and other devices to open blocked, or repair damaged blood vessels of the heart or body. This often avoids the need for heart surgery.

Common treatable conditions include:

  • Coronary artery disease (narrowing of the coronary arteries)
  • Heart valve disease
  • Peripheral vascular disease

Procedures and treatments offered:

  • Diagnostic imaging and pressure measurements
  • Balloon angioplasty
  • Clot extraction
