Frequently Asked Questions
What is an echocardiogram and do I need one?
An echocardiogram uses ultrasound to create images of the heart's structure and function. It is ordered when a cardiologist needs to assess valve function, heart muscle performance, or structural abnormalities that cannot be fully evaluated by ECG alone.
How can I reduce my risk of heart disease?
Key modifiable risk factors include smoking, high blood pressure, elevated LDL cholesterol, physical inactivity, excess body weight, and poorly controlled diabetes. Regular check-ups, medication when appropriate, and lifestyle modifications all contribute to meaningful risk reduction.
Is a stress test painful or risky?
Exercise stress tests are generally well-tolerated. Patients walk on a treadmill while heart activity is monitored. For those who cannot exercise adequately, pharmacological stress testing achieves the same diagnostic goals without physical exertion.
