Invasive Cardiovascular Technology - Southeast Technical Institute

Invasive Cardiovascular Technology from Southeast Technical Institute is a Campus Associate Cardiology degree that prepares you for a Healthcare career. The Invasive Cardiovascular Technologist is part of a team, consisting of a physician, other technologists and nurses.

To aid the technologists in their duties, they work with highly sophisticated imaging, monitoring and recording equipment. They assist the physician directly during the catheterization procedure to advance a small catheter (tube) through the patient?s blood vessels that supply the heart and other organs, so that an appropriate diagnosis and treatment may be determined. They also assist during the procedure by monitoring and recording the data as it is acquired.
