Cardiovascular examination at JUVENIS in Vienna

Modern examinations such as echocardiography, cardiac catheterization, or coronary angiography make vessels and the heart visible and facilitate a careful diagnosis by our specialists – the prerequisite for optimal treatment (balloon angioplasty, coronary stent implantation, bypass). Ergometry, on the other hand, measures the performance and resilience of the vessels, which also makes this examination method an ideal preventive tool.

Atherosclerosis can also narrow other blood vessels: for example, those in the legs, noticeable as intermittent claudication (peripheral arterial disease), or the carotid arteries with circulatory disorders of the brain.

Gait disorders are clarified by our team in an interdisciplinary manner regarding vascular diseases as well as orthopedic (spine, hip, knee) and neurological causes.
