New high-tech device revolutionizes heart examinations in Ried!

Ried, Österreich - In Ried, cardiological diagnostics are revolutionized! Thanks to a new state-of-the-art magnetic resonance tomograph, heart examinations can now be carried out radiantly and non-invasively. This means shorter waiting times for the patients and an improved diagnostic technology, such as MEINDIED . The innovative procedure provides detailed 3D images that provide information about the nature and function of the heart muscle and show diseases such as heart muscle infections, infarction consequences and even. Primar Thomas Winter, head of cardiology, emphasized the immense importance of this progress for the early detection of heart problems, which enables faster intervention.

progress in imaging technology

In addition to the magnetic resonance imaging, coronary computer tomography is also used in the Rieder hospital. This X -ray technology assesses precise calcifications and narrowing of the coronary arteries. With these two innovative procedures, many patients can do without a more invasive cardiac catheter examination. It is explained that the allocations of the new investigations must be discussed in advance with specialists in order to individually evaluate the need and benefits. The heart ultrasound remains the central standard procedure, while the cardiac MR serves as a specialized supplement, as in the documents of the bhs ried was.
