Echocardiography, commonly known as an echo test, is a non-invasive diagnostic procedure that uses sound waves to create detailed images of the heart. At UMC Victoria Hospital, this service is a cornerstone of the cardiology department, offering precise and reliable insights into heart health.
The hospital is equipped with state-of-the-art echocardiography machines, enabling the evaluation of heart structure, function, and blood flow. This test is essential for diagnosing a variety of heart conditions, including valve disorders, heart failure, congenital heart defects, and more. It also plays a critical role in monitoring the effectiveness of ongoing treatments and guiding surgical decisions.
