Echocardiography

Imaging Your Heart Function in Midtown Manhattan

Echocardiography is a noninvasive procedure used to assess the heart’s function and structures. Echocardiography allows us to assess or diagnose many conditions, including:

• Atherosclerosis – Gradual clogging of the arteries
• Arrythmia – Irregular heartbeat
• Cardiomyopathy – Enlargement of the heart
• Congenital heart disease – Defects in one or more heart structures
• Congestive heart failure – When the heart muscle cannot pump efficiently, there’s congestion in the blood vessels and lungs and swelling in the feet, ankles and other parts of the body
• Aneurysm repair/removal – Treatment for a dilated heart muscle or aorta
• Valvular heart disease in women and men – Malfunction of heart valves that may cause obstruction of blood flow
• Cardiac tumor – Tumor of the heart
• Pericarditis – Inflammation or infection of the sac surrounding the heart
