Cardiology is the branch of medicine that deals with the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases and disorders of the heart and cardiovascular system. This medical specialty focuses on conditions such as coronary artery disease, heart rhythm disorders, heart failure, and congenital heart defects. Cardiologists, the physicians specialized in this field, utilize various diagnostic tools, including electrocardiograms (ECGs), echocardiograms, and stress tests, to assess heart health and function. They may also perform interventional procedures like angioplasty or stent placement to treat specific heart conditions. Cardiology plays a crucial role in managing risk factors for heart disease, such as hypertension, high cholesterol, and diabetes, contributing to overall cardiovascular health.
