What can cardiac ultrasound detect? Is there any heart problem?

The heart is the most important organ in the human body. If there is any disease in the heart, it will have a great impact on people's health. Therefore, people need to go to the hospital for regular check-ups so that any disease can be discovered as early as possible. Cardiac color Doppler ultrasound is a common detection method. Many people do not know much about it. So here is what can be detected by cardiac color Doppler ultrasound?

Cardiac color ultrasound is the only instrument that can dynamically display the structure of the heart cavity, heart beats and blood flow without causing any harm to the human body. The heart probe is like the lens of a camera. As the probe rotates, the various structures of the heart are clearly displayed on the screen. For example, congenital heart disease, which has no less than 100 types of malformations, can be displayed by cardiac color ultrasound. We can see the residual hole and the blood flow through the hole on the screen; we can see the thickening of the valve, the reduction of the opening and the high-speed blood flow through the valve; we can see the changes in the left, right, front and back position of the heart structure and the resulting changes in the blood flow path; we can see the various deformities associated with the abnormal position of the heart.

Cardiac color ultrasound is also the only instrument that can visually display valvular lesions. Through color ultrasound measurements, doctors can understand the extent of valvular lesions to decide whether to use conservative treatment or surgical treatment. Cardiomyopathy is a disease with a gradually increasing incidence in recent years. The thickening of the myocardium and the enlargement of the heart cavity must be judged by color ultrasound. For coronary heart disease, color ultrasound can intuitively display the movement of the myocardium and cardiac function, and indicate to clinicians the location of myocardial ischemia...Almost all heart diseases can be diagnosed by color ultrasound.

The main purpose of the examination is to check whether there are any abnormalities in the morphology of the heart and whether the heart function is normal. It is the preferred examination method especially for congenital heart disease. Cardiac color ultrasound is the only instrument that can dynamically display the structure of the heart cavity, heart beats and blood flow without causing any harm to the human body. The heart probe is like the lens of a camera. Place the probe in front of the chest and move it back and forth. As the probe rotates, the various structures of the heart are clearly displayed on the screen.
