The 58 pages that link to Echocardiography, each with the reason it gives.
Heart failureRelated: It evaluates ventricular function, valves, and other causes of the syndrome.
EdemaRelated: It can identify cardiac dysfunction when edema accompanies heart failure.
Congenital heart defectRelated: It is the principal test for defining many congenital structural abnormalities.
Pulmonary edemaRelated: It helps identify cardiac dysfunction underlying pressure-related pulmonary edema.
Pulmonary circulationRelated: It can estimate pulmonary pressures and reveal effects of impaired lung-circuit flow.
Cardiac cycleRelated: It reveals chamber motion, valve behavior, and ejection throughout the cycle.
Pulmonary hypertensionRelated: It estimates pulmonary pressures and reveals right-heart changes, though it cannot confirm the diagnosis alone.
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathyRelated: It is a central test for measuring wall thickness and detecting outflow obstruction.
Marfan syndromeRelated: It measures the aortic root and monitors cardiovascular changes over time.
CardiomyopathyRelated: It measures wall thickness, chamber size, and pumping function in suspected cardiomyopathy.
HeartRelated: It shows chamber function, valve movement, and blood flow without surgery.
Rheumatic feverRelated: It can reveal heart inflammation or valve abnormalities, including findings without obvious murmurs.
22q11.2 deletion syndromeRelated: It detects and monitors congenital heart defects associated with the syndrome.
Dilated cardiomyopathyRelated: It shows chamber enlargement and estimates ventricular pumping function.
DiGeorge syndromeRelated: It evaluates suspected congenital heart defects, including lesions involving the aortic arch or outflow tract.
HemodynamicsRelated: Doppler echocardiography estimates blood-flow speed and pressure gradients.
Infective endocarditisRelated: It can reveal vegetations, valve damage, and complications such as abscesses.
Ehlers–Danlos syndromeRelated: Cardiovascular assessment may be considered when a subtype or symptoms raise concern.
Heart failure with reduced ejection fractionRelated: It commonly measures ejection fraction and identifies structural causes of heart failure.
Patent ductus arteriosusRelated: Doppler echocardiography can identify ductal flow and assess its effects on the heart.
Ventricular septal defectRelated: It locates a VSD and estimates its size and hemodynamic effects.
Aortic stenosisRelated: Doppler echocardiography estimates valve narrowing, pressure gradients, and ventricular effects.
Cardiovascular systemRelated: It reveals structural and pumping abnormalities without surgery.
CHARGE syndromeRelated: It identifies and monitors congenital heart defects associated with the syndrome.
CardiologyRelated: It lets cardiologists assess valves, chambers, and pumping function.
Valvular heart diseaseRelated: It is the principal test for defining valve anatomy and measuring lesion severity.
Systole (cardiac physiology)Related: It visualizes ventricular contraction and measures systolic performance.
Diastole (cardiac cycle)Related: Doppler and tissue measurements can assess ventricular relaxation and filling.
DoxorubicinRelated: Clinicians use cardiac imaging to evaluate function before and during potentially cardiotoxic treatment.
Restrictive cardiomyopathyRelated: Doppler measurements reveal restrictive filling and help assess ventricular function.
Sotos syndromeRelated: Cardiac evaluation may be considered because congenital heart defects occur in some affected individuals.
Tetralogy of FallotRelated: It identifies the four defects and assesses their severity before treatment.
Williams syndromeRelated: It helps assess aortic narrowing and other cardiac findings in Williams syndrome.
Alagille syndromeRelated: It assesses congenital heart defects, including peripheral pulmonary artery stenosis.
AlkaptonuriaRelated: It can evaluate valve disease associated with long-term ochronotic pigment deposition.
Hypertensive heart diseaseRelated: It can reveal ventricular thickening, chamber changes, and impaired filling.
Kabuki syndromeRelated: Cardiac imaging can detect congenital heart defects associated with Kabuki syndrome.
Loeys–Dietz syndromeRelated: It helps assess the aortic root and heart valves during syndrome surveillance.
VACTERL associationRelated: It identifies cardiac defects that may be clinically silent in an affected newborn.
1p36 deletion syndromeRelated: It can assess cardiac abnormalities associated with the syndrome.
DaunorubicinRelated: Cardiac function may be assessed before and during treatment with daunorubicin.
Ebstein's anomalyRelated: It identifies valve displacement, leakage, chamber size, and ventricular function.
Rubinstein–Taybi syndromeRelated: Heart defects occur in some affected people, making cardiac assessment relevant.
Septum (anatomy)Related: It can reveal septal defects, thickening, and abnormal movement.
StenosisRelated: It measures valve structure and blood-flow consequences in valvular stenosis.
Tricuspid atresiaRelated: It identifies the absent valve, associated openings, and ventricular anatomy.
AnasarcaRelated: It can identify cardiac dysfunction associated with systemic fluid congestion.
HemopericardiumRelated: It can reveal pericardial fluid and signs that the heart is being compressed.
Jacobsen syndromeRelated: Heart defects occur in some people with Jacobsen syndrome and warrant evaluation.
Mitral valve prolapseRelated: It shows leaflet motion and identifies associated mitral regurgitation.
