The Department of Cardiology has an international reputation in many aspects of Cardiology including Experimental Cardiology, Clinical Echocardiography, Epidemiology and Interventional Cardiology. We work in close collaboration with the Surgical Department to form the Thoraxcenter. Our current research interests are novel drug eluting stents, non-invasive coronary imaging, cell transplantation for myocardial repair and novel techniques for the detection of vulnerable plaque.
