The echocardiogram is one of the cornerstones of a complete cardiovascular evaluation. It involves a specialized technician, application of ultrasound gel and taking many images of the heart in many different views. It allows visualization of the heart, its function as a pump; it’s left and right sided structures and the way heart valves open and close. Echocardiogram also permits for visualization of the pericardium (which is the sack around the heart), possible cardiac tumors in addition to evaluation of any infections of heart valve structures, leaking or tightening of cardiac valves.

Echocardiograms are performed all day on Wednesdays at Everlast Cardiology. You do not need to be fasting for this procedure. You can wear any clothing items that you like.
