Scope of Service: Cardiac Cath Lab-Invasive
The Cardiac Cath Lab is an integral part of the King Faisal Heart Centre. The Cardiac Catheterization and

adult and pediatric outpatients and inpatients. These services employ state-of- the-art technologies and
equipment to remain at the forefront of diagnosing and treating of heart disease.
Cardiac catheterization procedures include hemodynamic and angiographic diagnostic studies,
endomyocardial biopsies, coronary and other angioplasties, valvuloplasty, placement of intravascular
stents, embolization of vascular structures, occlusion of intracardiac defects, direct emergency
