Echocardiography

The Echocardiography is an ultrasound examination of the heart. Today, it is the routine method for diagnosing heart diseases.

We use duplex sonography with color Doppler: This method enables the simultaneous examination of heart structures and blood flow.

Echocardiography allows us to take a look inside the heart.

This allows us to visualize the heart chambers or the heart valves, for example. We are able to use this method to measure the strength of the heart muscle. Previous heart attacks can be made visible.

Color-coded Doppler echocardiography can determine the direction and speed of blood flow in the heart.

Echocardiography is important for detecting heart attacks or circulatory disorders as well as heart valve defects and heart inflammation. Like all ultrasound examinations, it is painless and does not involve radiation exposure.
