Cardiac Radiology

Synonym(s):

 

National Heart Centre Singapore’s Department of Cardiac Radiology offers a comprehensive range of radiological examinations including general radiography at the outpatient clinics, cardiac and vascular interventional imaging and multi-slice computed tomography (CT) cardiac imaging. 

Diagnostic Cardiovascular Imaging

General Radiography utilising digital radiography creates almost instantaneous x-ray images. The sensitive detectors produce top quality images with lower radiation dose.
 
Multi-slice cardiovascular and thoracic computed tomography (CT) allows the heart and the coronary arteries to be well imaged using a non-invasive method.

Interventional Cardiac/ Vascular Radiology

Diagnostic angiography, percutaneous transcatheter coronary angioplasty, right heart catheterisation, cardiac valve repair/ replacement and electrophysiology procedures are routinely performed in the cardiac catheterisation laboratory.
 
Peripheral and aortic interventions are also done in both the cardiac catheterisation laboratory and hybrid operating theatre.

Patient Care Two new procedures at National Heart Centre Singapore to identify hidden heart diseases After experiencing chest pains in 2022, Frieda Matilda Desker was found to have severely narrowed heart arteries, subsequently undergoing an angioplasty to open her arteries. However, the 63-year-old part-time administrative officer continued to have chest pain, even though repeated scans showed no abnormalities. In 2025, she was referred to the National Heart Centre Singapore (NHCS), where she underwent a functional coronary angiography – a more sensitive test that evaluates how the heart’s blood vessels behave.
