Diagnostic and Interventional Catheterization

Dr. Lynn Peng heads the interventional catheterization program, working with Dr. Doff McElhinney, Dr. Kyong-Jin Lee, and Dr. Gregory Adamson.  They perform a variety of procedures including valvuloplasty, angioplasty, stent placement, valve replacement, collateral closure, vessel coiling, and ASD/PFO/VSD/PDA device closure. The laboratory performs about 1200+ catheterizations per year, of which about 60% are interventional procedures. In this program, new investigational procedures and devices are routinely evaluated in an extensive clinical research program
