CARDIOLOGY
Cardiology – The heart at the centre of attention
The heart is the central organ of our body. But it is also said to be the seat of the soul. We at the ETHIANUM Clinic Heidelberg can only agree with both of these statements. And that is precisely why we attach particular importance to our cardiology department and the associated specialities.
Because in cardiology, our board-certified specialists are completely dedicated to your heart health. For example, atrial fibrillation, heart failure or heart valve defects are treated. You will also find advice and medical help if you suffer from heart diseases such as angina pectoris and coronary heart disease (CHD). You will also find further information on the surgical placement of pacemakers or defibrillators. By the way: Thanks to the close cooperation between our cardiologists and radiologists, it is also possible at the ETHIANUM to perform an MRI for clients with a pacemaker or defibrillator.
However, even if you do not have any chest pain or heart problems, but “simply” are worried about your risk for heart diseases, then visit our general cardiovascular or special cardiac rhythm outpatient clinic. In our cardiovascular outpatient clinic, we are also happy to carry out preventive tests on request to ensure a long and healthy life.
At the ETHIANUM Heidelberg, the cardiologist and heart specialist Dr. Felix Gramley, MD, PhD is responsible for cardiology. Dr. Gramley looks after the health of your cardiovascular system without losing sight of you as a person. He takes his time, examines you comprehensively using the latest technical equipment, explains the findings to you and works with you to create a personalised treatment plan. The therapy will always take your life situation and lifestyle into account, as this is the only way to successfully improve your heart health in the long term.

STATE-OF-THE-ART DIAGNOSIS
LATEST CARDIO-ULTRASOUND SYSTEM AT THE ETHIANUM
With the latest cardiovascular ultrasound system from Siemens, doctors at the ETHIANUM are using the best technology currently available on the market. The Siemens Healthineers Acuson Origin offers outstanding image quality with highly efficient image acquisition, i.e. the recording of an image stream. With real-time analysis, three-dimensional images can be recorded and immediately evaluated.

Artificial intelligence based on a database of billions of images helps your doctor to use over 5600 measurement algorithms for diagnosis. Your doctor can use both conventional (two- and) three-dimensional ultrasound probes for transthoracic images (i.e. from the outside) and state-of-the-art three-dimensional transoesophageal probes for optimal ultrasound examinations by way of your food pipe. The latter offers, for example, the best viewing conditions for detailed and differentiated heart valve diagnostics or to rule out intracardiac blood clots before cardioversion in atrial fibrillation.
