Holter monitor (24h)
Holter monitoring provides a continuous recording of heart rhythm during normal activity (see also ). The monitor is usually worn for 24 hours to obtain a recording of a complete day.

Left heart ventricular angiography
Left heart ventricular angiography is a procedure that studies the left side of the heart and sometimes the heart's arteries. A dye is injected through a thin flexible tube (catheter) into the heart, followed by a series of x-rays to look at blood flow.

Swan-Ganz - right heart catheterization
Swan-Ganz catheterization involves the passage of a catheter into the right side of the heart to obtain diagnostic information about the heart and to provide continuous monitoring of heart function in critically ill patients.

Echocardiogram
Echocardiogram is a test that uses sound waves to create a moving picture of the heart. The picture is much more detailed than image and involves no radiation exposure.

Nuclear ventriculography (MUGA or RNV)
Nuclear ventriculography (MUGA or RNV) is a test that uses radioactive tracers to make heart chambers and blood vessels visible. The procedure is non-invasive. The heart structures are not touched by instruments.

Blood flow studies
Blood flow studies measure blood flow and pressure. A duplex study uses to estimate blood flow through arteries or veins. Plethysmography measures changes in blood volume in a blood vessel.

Tympanometry
Tympanometry is a test used to detect disorders of the middle air. Air pressure in the ear canal is varied to test the condition and mobility (movement) of the ear drum (tympanic membrane).
