When at all possible, the doctors at the Sutter Heart & Vascular Institute will utilize non-invasive diagnostic procedures to assess the strength and health of your heart. These diagnostic tests provide high-quality data, but do not require an operation. They are much less stressful and require little or no recovery time. The highly-trained staff of the cardiovascular lab is board certified and experienced in dealing with a every conceivable condition.

Non-Invasive Testing Procedures

• Signal Averaged Electrocardiogram (SAECG)


• Transesophageal Echocardiogram (TEE)


• Holter Monitoring


• Magnetic Resonance Imaging/Angiography


• Computed Axial Tomography/Ultrafact Scan
