Heart сheck up in MGM Hospital
About the clinic
A heart check up at MGM Hospital in Chennai, India, provides a thorough assessment of cardiac health to determine if a patient needs complex interventions. This diagnostic package is typically part of an individualized program that includes imaging and clinical tests. It is managed by an experienced cardiology team in a facility recognized as South Asia's highest-ranking USGBC LEED Platinum green hospital.
Diagnostic Components and Methods
The heart check up examines the heart's condition through several medical examinations. These tests help specialists evaluate if a patient requires a heart transplant or a Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD). The process includes several imaging and functional tests:
- Cardio Check-up to evaluate general heart function.
- Echocardiography to view heart valves and chambers.
- PET-CT and MRI of one region for detailed structural imaging.
- Preoperative cardiac diagnostics to assess surgical readiness.
What the Package Includes
The clinic offers this diagnostic as part of a bundle designed for international patients. While specific standalone prices vary, these individualized programs usually cover the full diagnostic suite and logistical support. The package consists of:
- Online consultation with a cardiac surgeon.
- All necessary imaging (MRI, PET-CT, Echocardiography).
- Double room accommodation for the duration of the tests.
- Airport and local transfers for the patient.
