About the department
According to the Focus magazine, the Department of Cardiology and Angiology at the Charite University Hospital Berlin ranks among the top German medical facilities specializing in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases!
The department offers the full range of medical services for the diagnostics and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. The department conducts all diagnostic and therapeutic procedures within the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory, functional diagnostics of the heart, diagnostics and treatment of cardiac arrhythmias. The department's angiologists carry out complex diagnostics using ultrasound examination and angiography, as well as the treatment of stenoses and vascular obstructions by means of balloon dilatation, stent implantation and lysis. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Karl Stangl.
The department has a modern Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory, which serves for all procedures of invasive diagnostics and interventional therapy for cardiovascular diseases. The priority focuses include the diagnostics and treatment of coronary artery disease, catheter therapy for valvular heart disease (for example, TAVI and MitraClip), interventional therapy for atrial septal defects and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Also, the department has an Emergency Cardiac Care Unit for the provision of emergency medical care for patients with acute thoracic pains, which in many cases are precursors to myocardial infarction.
All the department's specialists have expert knowledge and regularly undergo advanced training courses in order to keep abreast of innovations in cardiology and angiology. The patients are treated both on an inpatient and outpatient basis. The department has all the technical and professional resources in order to achieve the most favorable treatment outcome.
The service range of the department includes:

- Invasive catheter diagnostics and interventional therapy
- Diagnostics and treatment of coronary artery disease
- Fractional flow reserve measurement
- Optical coherence tomography
- Intravascular ultrasound examination
- Balloon dilatation
- Stent implantation (pure metal stents, drug-coated stents and bioabsorbable stents)

- Percutaneous (minimally invasive) pulmonary valve replacement
- Percutaneous (minimally invasive) mitral valve reconstruction using MitraClip and Cardioband techniques in mitral regurgitation
- Minimally invasive therapy in tricuspid regurgitation (Cardioband technique)
- Interventional closure of atrial appendage defect (for patients with atrial fibrillation and high risk of thromboembolism)
- Interventional treatment of septal defects (ventricular septal defect, open foramen ovale) using special probes
- Renal denervation for the treatment of resistant hypertension
- Treatment of patients with medically uncontrolled heart or pulmonary insufficiency using extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, Impella circulatory system
