• Therapy for arrythmias (the "electrical" disturbances of the heart)
  
• Therapies for aortic and mitral valve stenosis, including "balloon dilation" as a nonsurgical option
  
• A new, nonsurgical approach for atrial septal defects with a "Cardioseal device"
  
• Treatments for peripheral vascular disease and stroke interventions
  
• Sophisticated diagnosis of heart disease through the use of echocardiolography (heart ultrasound)
