What is an Echocardiogram?
To decrease the risk of heart failure, your doctor may recommend an echocardiogram to monitor your heart or diagnose any conditions. This is especially true if you already have a heart condition, have risk factors, or are genetically predisposed to heart disease. An echocardiogram test or heart ultrasound can help diagnose any issues to determine the appropriate preventative care.
At Ivy Cardiovascular, our team of cardiovascular specialists can help you get the diagnostic care you need to protect your heart and overall health. If you need an echocardiogram procedure in West Palm Beach, contact us today for quality care.

How Does an Echocardiogram Work?
Step 1: Initial Consultation
Well start your visit by getting to know you and your medical history. Be sure to share any personal or family history of heart disease.
Step 2: The Procedure
Your cardiologist will glide a wand over your chest to record images of your heart and heartbeat. It may feel cool due to the gel they use on the wand, but otherwise, you shouldn’t feel anything.
Step 3: Echocardiogram Results
Once the heart ultrasound is complete, your cardiologist will review the results and recommend any treatments. The entire process may take about an hour.
