Royal Alex plans 'amazing' heart centre

"A new heart centre planned at the Royal Alexandra Hospital, Edmonton, Canada, will expand the research and treatment hub that already serves more than 50,000 patients each year, helping many avoid having their chests cracked wide for open-heart surgery. With the launch of an $8-million fundraising campaign by the hospital's foundation, two new catheter labs with advanced technology will allow doctors to reach more blocked arteries with narrow tubes slipped into tiny holes in the wrist or groin" - Edmonton Journal
