Echocardiograms give us a real-time look at how your heart is working.
These sound waves create images of the heart - here are a few things our cardiologists look for when reading these studies:
- How well your heart is pumping
- How your heart valves are working
- The size and thickness of your heart chambers
- How blood is flowing through your heart
- Signs of increased pressure in your heart or lungs
- Fluid around your heart
It’s a noninvasive test that provides valuable information about the structure and function of our favorite organ.
