Coronary CT Angiography
Computed Tomographic Angiography (Coronary CT/Virtual Angiography) Computed tomographic angiography, also known as CT angiography or CTA, is a method that combines traditional computed tomography with angiography, providing detailed information about the blood vessels in our body. In a classic computed tomography (CT) scan, cross-sectional or sliced images of the body are obtained. In the resulting […]
Exercise ECG
Exercise ECG (Exertion Test, Exercise Electrocardiography, Running Test) The resting EKGs taken apart from patients with heart attack and significantly severe coronary artery disease may often be insufficient to show heart artery disease. Especially in patients describing exercise-related heart complaints and whose resting tests yield normal results, an Exercise Test may be necessary. In this […]
Electrocardiography (ECG)
What is ECG (Electrocardiography)? How to Withdraw? There is a center in our hearts called the sinus node that produces electrical impulses at certain intervals, and the impulses emanating from here are transmitted to the entire heart through specific pathways. Electrocardiography (EKG) is the graphical representation of these electrical currents on paper. For this, electrodes […]
Echocardiography
COLOR DOPPLER ECOCARDIOGRAPHY (ECO HEART ULTASOUND) Sending ultrasound waves to the heart from the front of the chest with a device and converting the received waves into an image on the device is known as echocardiography. With this examination: The advantage of this method is that it can be performed at any center, it is […]
Blood Pressure Holter
Blood Pressure Holter (Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring) Our blood pressure values can fluctuate throughout the day. They rise with excitement, stress, and physical activities, and decrease with rest. Blood pressure values that are higher during the day can decrease by 10-20 units during sleep. These variations can occur within certain limits even in healthy individuals. […]
Rhythm Holter
Rhythm Holter Monitoring (Holter ECG) Patients who complain of palpitations due to arrhythmias (tachycardia, bradycardia, frequent premature beats) and conduction disturbances (blocks) that cannot be detected in ECGs taken at times when the complaint is not present undergo what we call a rhythm Holter. A small bag-sized device is attached to the patient to record […]
