Understanding Cardiology
Cardiology is the branch of medicine dedicated to the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of heart diseases and disorders. As the leading cause of death worldwide, cardiovascular diseases pose a significant health challenge for individuals of all ages. Cardiologists are specialized physicians who possess expertise in evaluating, diagnosing, and managing various heart conditions, ranging from common issues like hypertension and coronary artery disease to complex congenital heart defects and arrhythmias.
