Some issues Dr. Juyong Lee, MD, MS, PhD can help you with:

Cardiac Catheterization

Cardiac catheterization is a procedure done to check on the health of the heart. A tiny, flexible tube called a catheter is inserted into a blood vessel through a very small opening, usually in the groin, and threaded through the blood vessel up to the heart. Once the catheter is in place, it can diagnose problems in the heart and perform certain corrective procedures.

A coronary catheter can be used to:

Take blood samples
Inject dye for an angiogram
Check for valve defects
Measure oxygen and pressure levels within the heart chambers
Take a biopsy
Perform a percutaneous coronary intervention, or procedure to clear blocked arteries
Widen narrowed valve openings

Because all of this can be accomplished without the need for open surgery, cardiac catheterization has become a popular option.

Vascular Ultrasound

Vascular ultrasound is an imaging test that uses ultrasound to take pictures of veins and arteries. Some kinds of vascular ultrasound can also see how the blood is flowing through them. Ultrasound is sonar technology, similar to what bats use to fly. It uses the echoes of high-frequency sound waves to create a picture of what's going on inside someone's body.

A vascular ultrasound can be used to:

locate blockages and blood clots
monitor blood flow after a procedure such as a stent or bypass
examine or check for an enlarged artery (aneurysm)
examine varicose veins
aid in the specific placement of needles and catheters

The procedure for a vascular ultrasound is very simple. Patients will lie on a table and expose the part of their body that needs to be examined. A clear gel will be applied to the skin so that no air will get in the way of the sound waves. A wand called a transducer will be moved over the skin, and grey swirled images of patients' veins and arteries will appear on a screen over a computer. There are no needles, and although there might be a bit of pressure at some points, it doesn't hurt. The procedure usually takes about 30 minutes.
