Heart disease is one of the most prevalent diseases in the world - and the most deadly. Therefore, the most effective preventive measure that you can take to avoid future heart disease is to make an appointment with one of our specialist cardiologists to determine your risk factors, and to arrange regular appointments to monitor your cardiac function and condition. This risk calculation uses modern diagnostic methods and does not take long. You should see a cardiologist in the event that any one or more of the following factors apply to you:
Yeditepe University Hospital uses the most advanced equipment and methods for cardiac screening. Your cardiac functions are monitored using state-of-the-art echocardiography techniques that facilitate 4-dimensional assessment of your heart and heart valves. 3D images are also obtained using coronary CT angiography.
Yeditepe’s Electrophysiology Laboratory uses the most advanced diagnostic and treatment methods. Rhythm and conduction disorders are detected by means of 3D mapping and corrected using a treatment method known as ablation. The pacemakers used to correct heart failure and rhythm-conduction disorders in our patients conform to US and European standards.
Your coronary veins are imaged using the most advanced methods in our Coronary Angiography and Heart Catheterization Laboratory. In the event that stenosis or constriction is detected, the condition is corrected by opening the constriction using balloon angioplasty and stent procedures. Yeditepe University Hospital allows you to take advantage of the very latest in stent applications (medication-eluding stents and biodegradable stents).
Non-surgical aortic valve replacement or Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI), and non-medication-resistant hypertension treatment (Renal Denervation) are some of the very latest applications that are at the service of all international patients at Yeditepe University Hospital.
