What is an ECHO?
An echocardiogram is an ultrasound scan used to assess the structure and function of the heart, including the heart muscle and valves.
Who is this test for?
You may benefit from an echocardiogram if you are experiencing:
- Shortness of breath
- Chest pain
- Palpitations
- Heart murmurs
- Known cardiac conditions
During the Test
During the echocardiogram, you will lie on an examination table while the transducer is moved across your chest. You may be asked to change positions or hold your breath for brief moments to capture clear images. The entire process typically lasts about 30 to 60 minutes, and our caring staff will be with you every step of the way, ensuring your comfort and answering any questions you may have.
Post-Test Guidelines
After the test, you can resume your normal activities immediately. Your echocardiogram is safely recorded and reviewed by our experienced clinicians. There are typically no side effects to worry about following the test. You may discuss any immediate questions you have with our staff.
Your ECHO Report
Following the test, your results will be interpreted by one of our clinicians. A comprehensive report will be prepared, summarising the findings of the ECHO. You will receive this report along with your referring clinician, who will explain the results and discuss any recommended actions or further tests, if necessary.
