Cardiovascular Technology
Gwinnett Tech’s invasive Cardiovascular Technology program prepares students to work side-by-side with interventional cardiologists to diagnose and treat cardiac and vascular disease. Gwinnett Tech’s program provides students with the latest training in ECGs, sterile technique, x-radiation safety, hemodynamics, and other skills required to assist in cardiac and peripheral catheterization.
