What Is An Echocardiogram?
This is a simple test that uses Doppler technology to take an inside look at your heart. It shows the valves, how blood is pumping through and can help the physician determine if an issue should be addressed. Sometimes the only way to get a good read is with a stress echo or a transesophageal echo. The physician will go over the best option for your situation. Once the test is performed, we can take a look at the results right away. This helps to determine the course of action after the test. You don’t have to face this alone.
