LAB TEST
2D Echo (Echocardiography)
At JadeCure, 2D Echo tests are performed by experienced cardiologists using advanced echocardiography technology. Each scan is followed by direct consultation, giving patients confidence in their heart health and treatment plan.
What is a 2D Echo?
A 2D Echo is a non-invasive ultrasound test that uses sound waves to create real-time moving images of the heart. It helps doctors assess the heart’s chambers, valves, pumping action, and overall function.
Uses of 2D Echo
- Detects heart valve diseases (stenosis, regurgitation).
- Assesses pumping efficiency (ejection fraction).
- Identifies congenital heart defects.
- Evaluates heart muscle damage after a heart attack.
- Monitors progress of ongoing heart conditions.
