A $2-million private donation will transform cardiac care at Royal University Hospital.

The money from Walter and Margaret McNabb will support a $3-million upgrade and renovation to the RUH Cardiac Catheterization Lab and its aging and outdated second unit.

The Cath Lab, which opened 12 years ago, allows cardiologists to see inside the heart and perform minimally invasive procedures, like stents for clogged arteries.

More than 3,200 life-saving procedures were done last year in the Cath Lab.  More details on the donation can be viewed here.
