Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory Facility Design and Equipment Selection
Offered by both tertiary and community hospitals, diagnostic and interventional cardiology is fast becoming a common service. It has become an area of growth for many facilities, resulting in an explosion of interest at healthcare facilities nationwide. Hospitals not currently offering diagnostic and interventional services are reviewing facility and capital equipment expenses, hoping to increase revenue growth by adding these services. Similarly, organizations that have been offering diagnostic and interventional cardiology services for years are periodically reexamining their programs for potential improvement and eventually replacing older equipment. Often, due to program growth, organizations are re-designing or expanding their facilities.



Forum: The Status of the RCIS
