Interventional Cardiology
Advanced Minimally Invasive Heart Procedures
State-of-the-Art Cardiac Interventions
Interventional cardiology involves minimally invasive procedures to diagnose and treat heart conditions. Dr Atul Kasliwal specializes in advanced techniques that restore blood flow to the heart and improve cardiovascular function with minimal patient discomfort and faster recovery times.
Our Procedures
Coronary Angioplasty
Minimally invasive procedure to open blocked coronary arteries using a balloon catheter to restore blood flow to the heart muscle.
- Balloon angioplasty
- Drug-eluting stents
- Bare-metal stents
Stent Placement
Permanent placement of small mesh tubes to keep arteries open and prevent re-narrowing after angioplasty.
- Drug-eluting stents
- Bioresorbable stents
- Stent optimization
Rotational Atherectomy
Advanced technique using a rotating burr to remove calcified plaque from coronary arteries that cannot be treated with standard angioplasty.
- Heavy calcification treatment
- Complex lesions
- High-pressure balloons
Intravascular Ultrasound
Advanced imaging technique that provides detailed views inside blood vessels to guide optimal stent placement and assess plaque characteristics.
- Vessel assessment
- Stent optimization
- Plaque analysis
Fractional Flow Reserve
Physiological assessment to determine if a coronary artery narrowing is causing significant blood flow reduction and requires treatment.
- Functional assessment
- Pressure wire measurement
- Treatment guidance
Chronic Total Occlusion
Complex procedure to open completely blocked coronary arteries that have been closed for extended periods, requiring advanced techniques.
- Retrograde approach
- Antegrade approach
- Hybrid techniques
Benefits of Interventional Cardiology
Minimally Invasive
Small incisions and catheter-based procedures result in less pain, faster recovery, and reduced risk of complications compared to open-heart surgery.
Faster Recovery
Most patients can return to normal activities within days rather than weeks, with shorter hospital stays and quicker return to work.
Precise Treatment
Advanced imaging and navigation techniques allow for highly targeted treatment of specific areas without affecting surrounding healthy tissue.
Reduced Medication
Successful interventions often reduce the need for long-term medication and improve overall quality of life for patients.
Your Patient Journey
