Cardiac Ultrasound

Our Cardiac Ultrasound Laboratory provides studies of the blood flow through the heart and measures the heart's pumping ability to assess conditions such as fluid around the heart or congestive heart failure. One of a select number of echocardiography labs in the U.S., we screen for, diagnose and monitor cardiac disease in both adults and children.

Vascular Ultrasound

The Vascular Ultrasound Laboratory provides studies of the blood flow through the arteries and veins to diagnose blockages that may lead to a stroke or pulmonary embolism. Commonly known as Doppler or duplex studies, vascular ultrasound tests use high-pitched sound waves to reflect off the blood vessels and create pictures of the blood moving through the veins and arteries. These images give your doctor information on the anatomy of your arteries and veins and can indicate possible blockages and clots.
