What is Echocardiography?

It is a non-invasive technique in which ultrasound waves are used to examine the structure of the heart. The Echo heart test uses the properties of sound waves to differentiate the tissues of varied density in the human body. This technique shows a detailed examination of the structure and function of the heart in pathological or physiological conditions. It produces live images of the heart and these images are known as echocardiograms. 

Types of Echocardiography

There are the following three types of echocardiography that are performed by the best cardiologist all over Lahore;

  • Transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) - It is a test in which ultrasound is used to generate computerized images of the heart and its associated blood vessels. 

  • Transesophageal echocardiogram - This test is used to detect the structure and function of the heart. During the procedure, a transducer similar to the microphone sends out ultrasonic sound waves. Images are taken from within the esophagus (food pipe).

  • Intracardiac echocardiogram (ICE) - In this procedure, a small catheter with an ultrasound sensor is passed into the heart that helps to visualize clear images of the heart. 

How is the Echo test performed in Lahore?

Echo test in Lahore is performed by placing a transducer on the chest. The transducer transmits and receives sound waves that bounce off the heart. A computer compiles these returning sound waves, or echoes, and turns them into a clear image of the heart.

In numerous cases, due to obesity or any lung disorder, the resolution of the picture is not clear. In such cases, doctors may do transesophageal echocardiography. For this test, a special transducer is placed inside the throat. From there, the sound waves are aimed at the heart.

What does an Echocardiography show? 

Echocardiography shows problems with any of the four chambers of the heart, abnormal connections between the heart and major blood vessels, and complex heart defects present at birth.

The results of the echocardiogram show normal and abnormal findings of the structure and functions of the heart. If the walls are thicker than 1.5cm, then it is considered abnormal. They may indicate a risk of high blood pressure and weak or damaged heart valves. An echocardiogram can also evaluate the pumping action of the heart to ensure enough blood is circulating around the body. 

Risks associated with Echo test

Standard echocardiography is a simple, painless, and safe procedure. There are no side effects reported as it is a non-invasive technique and does not use radiation. 

Although the lubricating gel may feel cold and you may experience some discomfort when electrodes are removed from your skin at the end of the procedure.
