Miami Cardiac & Vascular Institute (MCVI) at Baptist Health South Florida, founded by Dr. Barry T. Katzen in 1987, recently underwent an expansion that added 60,000 square feet of new space and included 40,000 square feet of renovations, nearly doubling the size of the Institute in order to accommodate a growing number of patients and procedures. Seeking to design interventional suites of the future, two of the new endovascular suites have glass walls and a video system that allow people to sit in a theater-style chair outside of the suite and control what they are watching using an iPad.

Cath Lab Digest talks with Barry T. Katzen, MD, Founder and Chief Medical Executive of Miami Cardiac & Vascular Institute, Miami, Florida, about the expansion and his vision for the Institute.
