Types of Stress Echocardiograms we offer:

Exercise Stress Echocardiogram: An exercise stress echocardiogram evaluates heart function during physical activity using ultrasound imaging before, during, and after exercise to detect conditions like coronary artery disease or valve issues. This involves the patient walking or running on the treadmill until the desired heart rate has been reached.

Dobatamine Stress Echocardiogram: This echocardiogram uses medication to simulate exercise, assessing heart function via ultrasound to detect coronary artery disease or valve issues, ideal for those unable to exercise or use our treadmill machine.
