Review and classification of diagnostic methods of the cardiovascular system

Abstract

Cardiovascular disease ranks first among the causes of morbidity and mortality in the elderly. Given the aging of the world’s population, the problem is becoming increasingly relevant and represents a significant burden on the healthcare system. Untimely and inadequately treated heart diseases lead to severe complications and disability of patients. Despite the rich arsenal of diagnostic methods, in some cases there are still significant difficulties in making a diagnosis, establishing the cause of the disease and determining the extent of damage to the myocardium and heart vessels. At the same time, a good orientation of the attending physician regarding the possibilities of diagnostic methods allows, in most cases, to obtain a complete picture of the existing cardiovascular pathology. The aim of this work was to study modern methods for diagnosing cardiovascular diseases.
