Diagnostic spectrum

Management of chronic diseases

e.g. coronary artery disease (CAD), heart failure, atrial fibrillation, arterial hypertension (high blood pressure), lipid metabolism disorders, diabetes mellitus, bronchial asthma or COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease)

Acute medical care

For cardiological complaints (e.g., rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath, reproducible chest tightness – as far as outpatient treatment is feasible) and internal medicine conditions / general practitioner issues (e.g., flu-like or gastrointestinal infections, pain, dizziness, mental complaints...) you can visit us at any time. 

Laboratory diagnostics

A look at your blood often reveals more than a thousand words: We specifically analyze, for example, your cholesterol and lipid subfractions, inflammatory activity, as well as relevant organ and metabolic values. These comprehensive laboratory analyses make it possible to identify risks early and initiate targeted countermeasures, as well as to precisely determine your personal cardiovascular profile. For maximum safety and a deep understanding of your health.

Long-term ECG / Holter ECG for up to 7 days

For the investigation of rare cardiac arrhythmias, as a diagnostic tool after stroke (apoplexy) or to assess the effectiveness of a completed electrophysiological therapy (ablation), we use state-of-the-art long-term ECG recorders or Holter monitors (individually and according to the question, including heart rate variability if required).

Long-term blood pressure monitoring

For the early diagnosis of elevated blood pressure or manifest arterial hypertension (high blood pressure), we rely on state-of-the-art long-term blood pressure monitoring systems, including pulse wave analysis if required.

Echocardiography

For your heart health, we use the latest generation, high-end GE Vivid™ Pioneer ultrasound system. Its outstanding image resolution allows us to assess your heart structure and function with millimeter precision using 2D, 4D, and color Doppler imaging, optionally including speckle tracking (depending on the specific question). You benefit from maximum diagnostic accuracy in early detection, monitoring, and treatment planning, even in complex cases. 

Stress echocardiography

With stress echocardiography, we examine your heart function specifically under stress – either on an ergometer or gently with medication. This radiation-free procedure reliably detects circulatory disorders that would not be visible in a resting ultrasound. This gives us a precise assessment of the condition of your coronary arteries and your individual exercise tolerance. Additionally, it can provide information about the relevance of valvular heart disease under stress. 

Ultrasound examinations of the brain-supplying vessels

Protect your blood vessels effectively: Our duplex ultrasound of the neck and brain vessels provides you with fast and reliable clarity about your vascular health. Using state-of-the-art ultrasound technology, we assess vessel walls and blood flow completely painlessly and without any strain on your body. This creates a reliable basis for your targeted preventative care.

Further ultrasound examination

Thanks to advanced imaging technology, we can assess the entire abdominal cavity and the structures of the thorax in detail and in real time. The extremely high resolution makes tissue changes in organs such as the liver, kidneys, spleen, or lung borders visible at an early stage. For you, this means a fast, completely painless, and diagnostically reliable evaluation right on site.

Sports diagnostics

Our cardiological sports checkup combines exercise ergometry on a bike or treadmill with precise spiroergometry and lactate measurement. Through detailed analysis of your cardiovascular system, lung function, and metabolism, we determine your individual training zones and thresholds. This allows you to optimize your training on a scientific basis and maximize your performance.

Spiroergometry

By simultaneously analyzing respiratory gases and cardiovascular function under stress, the exact cause of performance deficits or shortness of breath can be identified. With the CORTEX MetaLyzer® 3B, we rely on a highly precise measurement system for reliable results that can be used for customized training management. 

ABI measurement (ankle-brachial index)

This painless procedure allows for the early detection of arteriosclerosis and peripheral arterial disease (PAD/intermittent claudication) in the legs. This enables a precise assessment and targeted treatment of your overall cardiovascular risk. It is ideal for people with circulatory problems or an increased risk due to a family history or conditions such as diabetes mellitus or high blood pressure.

Vascular analysis

Measuring arterial stiffness is considered one of the most reliable indicators of actual cardiovascular risk. Painlessly and within minutes, we assess the elasticity of your aorta and your central blood pressure. This valuable diagnostic tool allows us to accurately classify your personal risk of heart attack or stroke.

Lung function test

Lung function testing is a simple and quick procedure for assessing your breathing capacity. We can detect airway constrictions (such as in asthma or COPD) and limitations in lung volume early on, allowing us to tailor your treatment accordingly. It is ideal for chronic cough, shortness of breath, a family or occupational history of lung disease, or as part of your cardiovascular check-up.

Cancer screening

Cancer screening is a matter of trust. As part of our comprehensive health check-ups, we use a structured medical history, as well as organ and laboratory diagnostics, to offer you maximum peace of mind regarding your health. Any findings requiring further investigation will be discussed with you in detail, and other specialists will be consulted as needed for further evaluation or treatment.

Bioimpedance measurement

More than just weight: With our highly precise, medically validated bioimpedance analysis (SECA mBCA), we determine your exact body composition in just a few seconds. We analyze muscle and fat mass, dangerous visceral abdominal fat, and your fluid balance. This is an essential diagnostic tool for targeted prevention, weight loss, validation of training/diet success, and cardiological monitoring.

Individual programs for healthy weight loss with medical supervision.
