Coronary artery disease develops when cholesterol-rich plaque narrows or blocks the coronary arteries that supply blood to the heart muscle. Reduced blood flow may cause chest pain (angina), breathlessness, or heart attack.

Our cardiologists diagnose coronary artery disease using ECG, stress testing, CT coronary angiography, invasive coronary angiography, and advanced intracoronary imaging when indicated. Treatment ranges from lifestyle modification and medications to coronary angioplasty, stenting, and emergency primary PCI for acute heart attack.
