Electrocardiogram (ECG)

The ECG is a test that records electrical signals from your heart. The pattern of these signals can tell the healthcare provider if your heart is normal, under stress, or having electrical problems, strain, or damage.

Coronary Angiography

Angiography is a special type of x-ray that allows your coronary arteries to be viewed and recorded on film. Your doctor can see if the blood vessels to your heart are clogged.

Ventricular Arrhythmia

Sometimes problems with the heart's electrical signals lead to a fast heart rhythm. Too many signals may make the heart beat very fast (tachycardia). Or signals may be sent so rapidly and irregularly that the heart muscle sometimes quivers and doesn't beat at all (fibrillation).

Symptoms of a Heart Attack

A heart attack is an urgent message from your heart that it's starved for oxygen. Here are the warning signs to look for--and what you need to do if they occur.

Understanding Focal Task-Specific Dystonia (FTSD)

Dystonia is a condition that causes muscle movements that you can’t control. There are many kinds of dystonia. Focal dystonia means it happens in 1 part of the body. Task-specific means it causes problems with certain tasks, such as writing, playing a musical instrument, or playing a sport.

Understanding Tardive Dyskinesia

Tardive dyskinesia (TD) is a condition that causes repeated body movements you can’t control. It’s a side effect that some people may have when taking certain medicines for months or years.
