Echocardiography Advanced Heart Imaging for Accurate Diagnosis
Echocardiography, commonly known as an Echo test, is a non-invasive, painless, and highly effective diagnostic test that uses sound waves (ultrasound) to create live images of your heart. It helps doctors evaluate the structure and function of your heart, including heart chambers, valves, walls, and blood flow patterns.
At our clinic, we offer state-of-the-art echocardiography services performed by experienced cardiologists and trained technicians. Whether you are experiencing symptoms like chest pain, breathlessness, or palpitations—or are undergoing routine heart check-ups—echocardiography provides crucial insights into your heart’s condition.
Why is Echocardiography Important?
Echocardiography helps in the early detection and monitoring of various heart conditions such as:
- Heart valve disorders (e.g., stenosis or regurgitation)
- Cardiomyopathy (weak heart muscles)
- Congenital heart defects
- Heart failure
- Pericardial diseases (fluid around the heart)
- Blood clots or tumors in the heart
The test can also assess the effectiveness of ongoing treatments and guide further management.
Types of Echocardiography We Offer:
1. Transthoracic Echocardiography (TTE): The most common type; performed by placing a probe on your chest.
2. Transesophageal Echocardiography (TEE): Provides a clearer view through the esophagus; used in complex heart conditions.
3. Stress Echocardiography: Evaluates heart function under physical stress or medication-induced stress.
4. Doppler Echocardiography: Measures the speed and direction of blood flow within the heart.
5. 3D Echocardiography: Offers a more detailed and comprehensive view of the heart structures.
