Cardiology
2D ECHO
A 2D-Echo is a safe, non-invasive ultrasound test that creates real-time moving images of the heart. It helps doctors evaluate:
Heart chambers and valves
Pumping capacity (ejection fraction)
Heart size and shape
Abnormal movements of the heart walls
It is used to diagnose:
Congenital heart disease
Valve disorders
Cardiomyopathy
Pericardial effusion
Heart failure
Procedure
A transducer is placed on the chest with ultrasound gel to obtain clear images. The test is painless, radiation-free, and usually takes 15–30 minutes.
2D-Echo is commonly recommended for patients with chest pain, breathlessness, palpitations, or suspected heart conditions. It plays a crucial role in early diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment planning.
