More than 150 square meters are dedicated to invasive heart and vessel explorations.

The hemodynamic laboratory includes an angiography room designed like an operating theater, equipped with high-definition radiological equipment (composed of a fluoroscopy system) that allows for high-quality imaging. A specialized team in interventional cardiology is available 24/7.

All diagnostic cardiovascular exploration procedures for children and adults, as well as valve and coronary dilatations and pacemaker implantations, are routinely performed:

  • Coronary angiography
  • Interventional catheterization
  • Implantation of single, dual-chamber, and multi-site pacemakers for ventricular resynchronization
  • Implantation of automatic implantable defibrillators
