Testing

  
Electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) Video  Coronary Angiogram

  •  64-Slice CT Scan provides detailed 3-D images of the heart. The 64-Slice CT scan system lets physicians look inside the heart without surgery or the use of a catheter

  • Calcium Scoring is a non-invasive method of obtaining information about the location and extent of calcified plaque in the coronary arteries.

  • Echocardiogram uses harmless sound waves to produce images of the heart to evaluate the structure and movement of the valves and chambers. It can help identify abnormalities of the heart muscle or valves, and detect fluid around the heart.

  • EKG Stress Test is general screening tool that tests the effect of exercise on the heart.

  • Electrocardiogram (ECG) evaluates the electrical activity generated by the heart at rest and with activity.

  • Lipid Test measures LDL cholesterol (low-density lipoprotein), HDL cholesterol (high-density lipoprotein) and triglycerides.

  • Nuclear Cardiac Testing produces images by detecting radiation from different parts of the body after the administration of a radioactive tracer material.

  • Stress Echo is a non-invasive test that combines two tests, a treadmill stress test and an echocardiogram (ECHO)
  • Transesophageal Echo (TEE) uses sound waves to produce images of the heart. The difference between a TEE and a standard echocardiogram is that, in the TEE, the sound waves are emitted from a flexible imaging transducer that has been advanced through the patients mouth into the esophagus to the level of the heart. The TEE images provide a view of the heart that is not obscured by other body organs, such as the lungs.

  • Vascular Ultrasound--including Peripheral Arterial Studies, Peripheral Venous Studies, Carotid Artery Studies and Abdominal Vascular Studies-provide pictures of the body's veins and arteries.
