Echo Cardiography
A test called echocardiography creates real-time images of your heart using sound waves. The photograph is known as an echocardiography. Your doctor can use this test to keep an eye on the health of your heart and its valves.
The images can help them get information about
- Heart chamber size, dilation, and thickening
- Blood clots inside heart chambers
- Aorta-related problems
- Heart valve function issues
- Heart pressure measurement
Understanding the condition of the heart muscle, particularly following a heart attack, requires an echocardiography. Additionally, it can identify heart abnormalities or problems in unborn children.
An echocardiography is a painless procedure. Only very seldom and only when contrast is utilised during particular types of echocardiograms are there hazards.
Our Commitment
Your doctor might want to examine your heart's chambers or valves if there is an irregular heartbeat, as well as test your heart's pumping power. Additionally, if you exhibit heart-related symptoms like shortness of breath or chest pain, or if your ECG is abnormal, they might order one for you.
