Cardiac Catheterization & Angioplasty in India — Fast, Safe, Affordable
Cardiac catheterization is a minimally invasive procedure used to examine and treat the heart’s blood vessels. During angioplasty, a tiny balloon opens a blocked artery and a stent keeps it open. Performed under local anaesthesia and sedation, it takes 1–3 hours and most patients are discharged within 24–48 hours. India’s interventional cardiology centres are equipped with the latest biplane catheterisation labs, FFR technology, intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), and rotational atherectomy — the same technology as top hospitals in the US, UK and Germany. Patients from the Gulf get immediate scheduling, expert cardiologists, and outstanding outcomes at 60–75% lower cost.
