Transthoracic Echocardiography (TTE)

Transthoracic Echocardiography (TTE) is a safe, non-invasive diagnostic tool to assess the structure and function of your heart. This essential imaging technique uses high-frequency sound waves (ultrasound) to create detailed images of your heart in real time, helping our specialists detect heart conditions early and accurately.

At Pediatric Cardiology of SWLA LLC, we combine advanced imaging technology with expert interpretation to ensure you receive timely and accurate results. Our team is committed to guiding you through every step, from diagnosis to treatment planning.

Fetal echocardiography is a specialized ultrasound that evaluates a baby's heart during pregnancy. It provides detailed images of the fetal heart's structure and function, helping detect congenital heart defects early. Recommended between 18–24 weeks of pregnancy, it's safe, non-invasive, and vital for high-risk pregnancies. Our expert team uses advanced imaging to ensure accurate diagnosis and support timely care and planning. We work closely with your obstetrician to guide next steps and ensure the best outcome for you and your baby. Schedule your fetal heart scan today for peace of mind and expert care.

Electrocardiogram (EKG/ECG)

An electrocardiogram (EKG or ECG) is a quick, painless test that records the electrical activity of your heart. It helps detect irregular heart rhythms, heart attacks, and other cardiac conditions. Small electrodes are placed on your chest, arms, and legs to capture your heart’s electrical signals. The test takes just a few minutes and provides valuable insights into your heart health. At Pediatric Cardiology of SWLA LLC, we use advanced EKG technology for fast, accurate results. Whether for routine screening or urgent concerns, we’re here to keep your heart in check.

Stress Echocardiogram

A stress echocardiogram combines exercise with ultrasound imaging to assess how well your heart functions under stress. It helps detect blocked arteries, heart muscle issues, and other cardiac conditions not visible at rest. During the test, ultrasound images are taken before and after walking on a treadmill or receiving medication that simulates exercise. The procedure is safe, non-invasive, and provides critical insight into your heart’s performance. At Pediatric Cardiology of SWLA LLC, we deliver accurate results and personalized care to support your heart health.
