Currently, the National Institute of Cardiology is implementing advanced and groundbreaking techniques in the field of cardiovascular diagnosis, treatment, and intervention, such as: advanced cardiovascular diagnosis with artificial intelligence support; imaging and assessment of the physiological function of the heart and blood vessels within the vessel lumen; methods for intervening in congenital heart disease; complex coronary artery intervention; and treatment of complex arrhythmias with modern technologies such as 3D electrocardiographic mapping of the heart chambers, cryotherapy for atrial fibrillation, pulsed electrical field ablation, and other advanced techniques.

Vietnamese patients will have access to more cardiovascular treatment facilities with top-notch personnel and equipment, eliminating the need to seek treatment abroad.

"In Vietnam, we apply and implement all the most advanced techniques in cardiovascular treatment: emergency or specialized coronary interventions such as transcatheter valve replacement and transcatheter valve repair," Professor Hung said.
