Dexeus University Hospital provides specialized Cardiac catheterization with an emphasis on precise cardiovascular diagnosis, safe catheter placement, and personalized treatment planning. Established in 1973, the JCI accredited hospital is based in Barcelona, Spain and has 200 beds supported by modern cardiology and interventional care facilities.

Cardiac Catheterization can help doctors investigate coronary artery disease and evaluate how effectively the heart and its vessels are functioning. The catheter may be inserted through the radial artery in the wrist or the femoral artery in the groin and advanced toward the heart. Depending on the purpose of the procedure, doctors may measure cardiac pressures, examine blood vessels with contrast imaging, or perform an intervention such as angioplasty. Patients generally undergo observation afterward to monitor the access site and overall recovery.
