Pediatric Cardiology

Cardiovascular catheterization is a methodology that includes puncturing a conduit and/or vein, normally situated in the crotch, so a little, long, adaptable cylinder (catheter) can be guided into the heart and real vessels around the heart.

The catheter is traveled through the heart with the guide of fluoroscopy (X-beam machine). This is generally performed to help in giving a determination of heart issues.

Interventional catheterization is a kind of cardiovascular catheterization where real medications can be performed by utilization of specific catheters.
