Best Paediatric Cardiologists in Kolkata

Pediatric cardiologists use a variety of techniques to diagnose and treat heart conditions in children, these include Echocardiography, Electrocardiography (ECG), Cardiac catheterization and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) or Computed Tomography (CT).

Pediatric heart surgery refers to surgical procedures that are performed on children's hearts to treat congenital heart defects or other heart-related conditions. These can include procedures such as open-heart surgery, heart transplantation, and minimally invasive surgery according to the best pediatric heart treatment specialist.

Children should see a pediatric cardiologist surgeon if they have symptoms of a heart condition, such as chest pain, shortness of breath, or a rapid or irregular heartbeat. Children who are born with congenital heart defects should also be seen by a cardiologist as soon as possible.

The most common pediatric cardiac defect is a congenital heart defect, such as a ventricular septal defect or atrial septal defect.

The difference between a pediatric cardiologist and a heart specialist is that a pediatric cardiologist specializes in treating heart conditions in children, while a heart specialist (cardiologist) specializes in treating heart conditions in adults.
