The investment of the group in the new center stands at EUR800,000 and included buying a Philips AZURION 3 angiography system as part of broader partnership between Monza Ares and Philips, which helps doctors reach fast, precise and efficient diagnostics, using state-of-the-art medical technology, Monza officials said on Wednesday.

Diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in Targu Jiu are free for the patients, they added.

Monza Ares currently has 10 angiography rooms in seven centers in Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca, Constanța, Targu Jiu, Tulcea and three multidisciplinary clinics with a focus on cardiology, in Cluj-Napoca, Monza Ares Cardiomed.

In 2023, the group took over the cardiology activity of the Monza Hospital.
