Cardiovascular Sciences is a stimulating and rising profession. The BS MT in cardiovascular sciences program skills students with advance educational basics, specialized courses and clinical trainings.

Clinical Training

The student of cardiovascular sciences is placed at Dr. Ziauddin Hospitals for their intensive clinical practicums rotations where they are trained under supervision of cardiac physicians and technologists. They utilize their knowledge of cardiovascular principles and functions in the operations of exercise tolerance test, cardiac catheterization, echo cardiograph, cardiac devices follow up, ambulatory B.P monitoring and ECG event/loop monitoring. The clinical practicums prepare the student to understand the various diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. These trainings start after every semester examination and the cycle continues till the final year of the undergraduate programme.
