Cardiac catheterization provides heart patients complete minimally invasive diagnostic and treatment options. Electrophysiology labs restore heart rhythms using implantable cardiac devices such as pacemakers and defibrillators.

Cardiac Catheterization Laboratories providing both diagonostic non-invasive and invasive corrective procedures are available at California Pacific Medical Center, Marin General Hospital and St. Luke's Hospital.
