Cardiology is the medical specialty focused on diagnosing and treating diseases and conditions of the heart and blood vessels, including coronary artery disease, heart failure, arrhythmias, and congenital heart defects. Cardiologists use tools like echocardiograms, EKGs, and cardiac catheterization, and may subspecialize in areas such as interventional cardiology or electrophysiology. It requires years of medical school, residency, and fellowship training beyond a general medical degree.
