An aneurysm is a bulging, weak spot in the aorta that may be at risk for rupturing. In the case of an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), the aneurysm is in part of the aorta that is in the abdomen.

Aortic valve disease can involve stenosis (narrowing) or regurgitation (leaking). Aortic Stenosis means blood cannot flow freely through the "front doors" in the heart.

An open, invasive aortic valve replacement is a surgery to replace a poorly working aortic valve with an artificial valve. The heart has 4 valves.

The clinic provides a comprehensive evaluation for sudden cardiac arrest (SCA).

Cardiac computed tomography (CT) is a painless test that takes detailed X-ray pictures of the heart.

Cardiac MRI is a noninvasive way of evaluating the heart’s structure and function. Cardiac MRI is an imaging method that uses powerful magnets and radio waves to create pictures of the heart. It doesn’t use radiation (X-rays).
