Cardiology
Ultrasound diagnostic

Ultrasound of the heart (EchoCG) is a non-invasive examination performed on a SmartScan ultrasound scanner near the patient.

This technique helps detect heart function abnormalities that may not cause pain or appear on an ECG.

The procedure assesses heart performance, measuring cavity size, wall thickness, and detecting structural changes in valves and other parts of the heart.
With the help of ultrasound of the heart, it is possible:
  • get information about the size of the heart, the volume of its cavities;
  • to determine the condition of the membranes of the organ (pericardium);
  • record information about the thickness of the walls of the heart;
  • detect scarring changes in the myocardium;
  • analyze the operation and condition of valves, etc.
EchoCG will help to identify a complex of heart diseases and pathological conditions, including:
  • ischemic disease;
  • myocardial pericarditis, that is, an inflammatory process;
  • aneurysms of any degree;
  • hypertrophy and dilation of cardiac chambers;
  • the presence of intracardiac blood clots, heart tumors, etc.
Advantages of EchoCG
1

Speed

The ECHO-KG technique allows you to quickly understand the cause of shortness of breath, fatigue, swelling of the lower extremities, increased blood pressure, heart failure, fainting.
2
Complexity
The examination is used not only in the diagnosis of functional disorders of the organ.
3
Efficiency
It is also indispensable in preventive cardiology and is recommended before the desire to engage in amateur and professional sports.
