A heart catheterization is a heart test that is done by a cardiologist
with the help of one or two technicians. Soft, thin plastic catheters
are placed in the large blood vessels in the leg and threaded carefully
to the heart. In this way, pictures of the heart can be taken and
pressure measurements inside the heart's chambers can be made.
