Advanced Cath Lab Services at Mukat Hospital: Leading Cardiac Care in Chandigarh
When it comes to cardiac emergencies or chronic heart conditions, the quality of technology is just as vital as the skill of the surgeon. At Mukat Hospital, Chandigarh, our Advanced Cath Lab (Catheterization Laboratory) stands as a beacon of hope, offering precision diagnostics and life-saving interventions 24/7.
What is an Advanced Cath Lab?
A Cath Lab is a high-tech examination room where interventional cardiologists perform minimally invasive procedures to diagnose and treat cardiovascular disease. Unlike traditional surgery, Cath Lab procedures use small catheters, reducing recovery time and physical trauma.
Why Mukat Hospital has the Best Cath Lab in Chandigarh
Choosing the right facility for heart care is a life-altering decision. Here is why Mukat Hospital is a preferred destination for cardiac excellence:
1. High-Precision Digital Imaging
Our lab is equipped with the latest Flat Panel Detector technology, providing high-resolution, real-time 3D images of the coronary arteries. This allows our doctors to place stents with sub-millimeter accuracy.
2. Low-Dose Radiation Protection
Patient safety is our priority. Our advanced systems are designed to use the minimum possible radiation dose required for clear imaging, significantly reducing exposure for both patients and medical staff.
3. Radial Access Specialist Center
We specialize in Transradial Access (performing procedures through the wrist). Compared to the traditional femoral (groin) approach, this method offers:
- Negligible risk of bleeding.
- Immediate mobility after the procedure.
- Faster discharge from the hospital.
4. 24/7 Emergency Primary Angioplasty (PPCI)
In the event of a heart attack, the “Golden Hour” is critical. Our Cath Lab team is available around the clock to perform Primary Angioplasty, a procedure that opens blocked arteries immediately to minimize heart muscle damage.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Most diagnostic procedures (like Angiography) take 15–30 minutes. Interventional procedures (like Angioplasty) usually take 45–90 minutes depending on complexity.
No. Procedures are performed under local anesthesia at the entry site (wrist or groin). You may feel a slight pressure, but you will be awake and comfortable throughout.
With our radial (wrist) approach, most patients are up and walking within a few hours and are typically discharged the following day.
