Research

Mayo Clinic researchers work to improve catheter-based tests and treatments and to find new uses for them.

Topics of research have included:

  • Ways to replace heart valves without surgery.
  • Methods to close the left atrial appendage to reduce the risk of stroke.
  • Cardiac catheterization to treat atrial fibrillation.
