Watch tonight’s "Medical Insight," which features Dr. Mudassar Ahmed, an interventional cardiologist at Essentia Health’s Heart & Vascular Center in Duluth. Dr. Ahmed discusses a procedure called a “transradial intervention.” Instead of doing an angiogram or heart catheterization procedure through the femoral artery in the groin, Dr. Ahmed often uses the radial artery in the wrist. He describes the benefits for patients in tonight’s piece, which airs during the 10 p.m. newscast on KBJR-6 and Range 11 and again tomorrow at 5:30 p.m. on KDLH-3.
