Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE)
Detailed ultrasound of the heart on Philips and GE Vivid T9 machines.
What happens
An ultrasound scan through the chest wall that shows how well your heart chambers pump and how your valves open and close. Done on state-of-the-art Philips and GE Vivid T9 systems, including 3D views when needed. It is painless and takes about 30 minutes.
Before your visit
No fasting needed. Wear a top that is easy to open at the front and bring your previous echo reports.
