Center for Heart & Vascular Health leads
with the latest new diagnostic capabilities
The Center for Heart & Vascular Health is leading Delaware in
cardiovascular care with several new diagnostic innovations.
Real-time 3-D echocardiography provides physicians with a new perspective in
cardiac ultrasound technology giving them images of the heart at work,
non-invasively. Live, full-volume images provided by a 3-D echo offer a more
accurate, close-up assessment of both complex anatomical structures and
valvular function.
Microvolt-Level T-Wave Alternans technology, which gauges subtle electrical changes in a
patient's heartbeat, provides a reliable, noninvasive way to identify patients
at risk for ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death.
Blood Volume Analysis technology, which provides a total
picture of intravascular volume, including both red cell and plasma volumes,
can help optimize treatment for a variety of medical issues.
We offer a complete range of diagnostic tools and skilled experts who use
them to their fullest potential. These major technological advances have
revolutionized our ability to detect problems with heart structure, function and
blood flow. Christiana Care offers the most advanced selection of diagnostic
technologies known today for evaluating and monitoring symptoms of heart
trouble.
