Approach

Clear advice. Careful care.

Every recommendation is shaped by your anatomy, your symptoms, your risk and what matters to you. Treatment decisions are made together, with your GP kept informed at every step.

Many patients are referred for a closer look at a scan result, for symptoms that persist despite treatment, or for a second opinion on a complex blockage. Not every narrowing needs a procedure, and the consultation is the place to work out which ones do.

Coronary intervention

Contemporary techniques for complex coronary disease.

Each procedure is planned around the individual artery and the individual patient, using contemporary imaging, physiology and calcium-modification techniques where they help.

  • Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) IVUS · OCT
  • Pressure-wire physiology (FFR, RFR, CFR, IMR) Physiology

What your CT coronary angiogram score means

CTCA reports grade the narrowest point in your arteries on the CAD-RADS scale, from 0 to 5. The grade guides what happens next.

Read the guide

Maximum stenosis by grade. General information only; your result is interpreted with your symptoms and risk factors.
