Echocardiography, also known as echo, is a procedure that provides images of the heart and its structures. They may be used to diagnose structural heart problems such as valve disease or congenital heart defects. This blog post will explain why you should consider getting an echocardiogram:
-Echocardiography is a very safe procedure because it uses sound waves (not radiation).
-It can provide information about the function of your valves and other conditions
-An echocardiogram can show if there is fluid around your lungs. It helps diagnose many different conditions. An experienced technician usually performs it
Echocardiograms can show information about fluid in the lungs, blood clots on the heart valves, and other abnormalities. They are also used to check for valve leakage or injury due to previous procedures such as open-heart surgery. Echocardiogram tests are painless and take only a few minutes to perform.
