Overview
The scope of research and complexity of cases at the Peter Munk Cardiac Centre has made it a national and international source for discovery, education and patient care.
Research in the areas of structural and congenital heart disease intervention involves:
​
-
Minimally invasive (transcatheter, percutaneous) techniques for treating Congenital Heart Defects
​
-
Minimally invasive (transcatheter, percutaneous) techniques for treating Structural Heart Defects
​
-
Echocardiography
​
-
Coronary Artery Disease
​
-
Heart Valvular Disease
