The Heart and Vascular Institute is equipped with two state-of-the-art Cardiac Catheterization Laboratories—the ARTIS Q and the ARTIS Icono, the first in the country. The Artis Q expands precision medicine and supports complex procedures. It speeds up procedures and provides real time verification of the stent positioning while moving the device.
The ARTIS Icono, on the other hand, allows our medical practitioners to perform cardiac angiogram, angioplasty, coiling of the brain and radiologic intervention procedures among others. The new machine can deliver fast, clear and consistent 3D imaging of vital organs of stroke patients. Bleeding can be visualized in a short span of time which is vital in the treatment of stroke cases. This can lead to better patient outcomes in cerebral aneurysms and arteriovenous malformation cases.
