Cardiac Catheterization Centre Augsburg
Top-level medicine for your heart!
Cardiac Catheterization Centre
Our new cardiac catheterization centre is a specialised unit at Augsburg University Hospital where interventional procedures of heart conditions are performed.
There are several cardiac catherization procedures and operating theatres which we will introduce in more detail.

Hybrid operating theatre
and cardiac catheterization
This state-of-the-art cardiac catheterization room offers operating theatre-level air quality and is equipped with advanced fusion imaging and intracardiac ultrasound. These technologies enable precise diagnosis and treatment of the heart in a exceptionally safe environment. In this hybrid-operating room transcatheter heart valve and structural interventions are performed.
Structural and interventional heart valve procedures
Both structured procedures such as the minimally invasive implantation of new heart valves and the interventional repair and treatment of leaking heart valves and septal defects are carried out, as well as interventional procedures such as the opening of narrowed coronary arteries. These procedures contribute to improving heart health in a particularly gentle manner.
State-of-the-art equipment
Cardiac catheterisation rooms 2 and 3 are also equipped with the latest technology and offer precise fluoroscopic imaging as well as intracoronary imaging for the most accurate and detailed images of the heart's blood vessels (coronary arteries).
High-end interventions
Here we can measure blood flow in the heart using ultra-fine wires. These advanced procedures enable highly precise therapy, so that we can plan the insertion of vascular stents extremely accurately and limit their use to what is necessary.
»Our patients receive comprehensive treatment from highly experienced doctors. Specialised teams provide treatment in our cardiology units depending on the specific condition. Diagnostics and therapeutic interventions are carried out with the highest precision and quality and following the latest clinical guidelines.«
Heart Rhythm Centre
In rooms 4 and 5 of the Augsburg Heart Rhythm Centre, our experienced specialists treat patients with all types of cardiac arrhythmias.
Electrophysiology laboratory
In our electrophysiology laboratory, we use the latest technology (4D/4D mapping) to examine how the electrical signals in the heart function and whether there are any disturbances that lead to heart rhythm problems.
High-end ablations
Targeted treatments, such as ablations, can successfully treat these disturbances. Radiofrequency ablation, cryoablation and pulsed field ablation are performed at the Heart Rhythm Centre.
As an integral part of the Augsburg-Schwaben Heart Centre, we are the university's maximum care provider for cardiac medicine in Bavarian Swabia and a nationally recognised top clinic for cardiac medicine.
