Cardiovascular Thoracic Institute
As a part of the Keck School of Medicine of USC, the USC Cardiovascular Thoracic Institute offers a full range of programs and services to address cardiovascular concerns. We offer state-of-the-art screenings, diagnostic tests, innovative non-invasive treatments and specialized therapies including transplant surgery. Whatever the level of care you require, our team will design and implement the health plan that works best for you.
At the USC Cardiovascular Thoracic Institute, we are pushing the boundaries of our field. We are exploring new methods to better treat our patients, including the development and refinement of new technologies. Innovative robotic therapy and heart valve replacements are just two examples of treatments that our surgeons have helped to perfect.
To treat cardiovascular and thoracic disease, medicine is shifting toward organ-based therapies and an interdisciplinary model, so that expertise from a variety of fields can be shared. This progressive model forms the basis of our patient care delivery. Our cardiologists no longer hand off cases to our cardiac surgeons. Instead, medical and surgical experts collaborate in planning the treatment and follow-up care for their patients, making the best decisions possible and using the best therapies available.
