CARDIOLOGY
Cardiology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the study, diagnosis, and treatment of conditions and diseases related to the heart and the circulatory system. Cardiologists are medical professionals who specialize in this field and are trained to diagnose and manage a wide range of heart-related issues.
Cardiology encompasses the evaluation and treatment of various cardiac conditions, including:
Coronary artery disease (CAD):
This is a common condition where the blood vessels that supply the heart muscle with oxygen and nutrients become narrowed or blocked, often leading to chest pain (angina) or heart attacks.
