Comprehensive Cardiac Diagnostic Services
Transthoracic Echocardiogram
The Transthoracic Echocardiogram (TTE) is a non-invasive ultrasound procedure that provides detailed images of the heart’s structure and function, allowing doctors to assess heart health and detect abnormalities without any discomfort to the patient.
Transesophageal Echocardiogram
The Transesophageal Echocardiogram (TEE) is a specialized internal ultrasound performed via the esophagus. This procedure offers enhanced image quality for a detailed assessment of heart conditions and typically requires fasting and sedation for patient comfort.
Dobutamine Stress Echocardiogram
The Dobutamine Stress Echocardiogram (DSE) evaluates heart performance under stress using medication to stimulate the heart. This non-invasive test helps to reveal coronary artery disease and requires specific preparation such as fasting and adjustments to medications prior to the test.
Holter Monitoring
Holter Monitoring involves continuous ECG recording over 24 or 48 hours to track heart rhythms and identify irregularities. It provides valuable information regarding daily activities and heart function, requiring minimal preparation for skin hygiene.
Treadmill Exercise Stress Test
A treadmill stress test evaluates how your heart functions during physical exertion. As you walk on a treadmill, your heart rate, blood pressure, and electrical activity (ECG) are monitored to help doctors diagnose coronary artery disease, detect abnormal rhythms, and safely determine your exercise tolerance.
Device Interrogation
A Device interrogation is a quick, non-invasive procedure that checks your implantable cardioverter-defibrillator. Using a wireless programmer, a specialist reviews the device’s battery life, verifies proper function, and downloads recorded data to monitor your heart rhythm and track any delivered therapies.
Tilt Table Test
A tilt table test helps identify the cause of unexplained fainting. This safe, non-invasive procedure monitors how your heart rate and blood pressure respond to changes in position, helping doctors evaluate symptoms of lightheadedness and syncope
ECG
An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a quick, painless test that records the electrical activity of your heart. Using small, sticky sensors placed on your chest, arms, and legs, it helps doctors detect heart rhythm abnormalities, evaluate chest pain, and assess your overall cardiac health..
