Common Cardiovascular Diagnostic Tests
Different types of tests give your provider necessary and helpful insights into your cardiovascular condition. These insights will in turn assist in identifying your specific needs in order to formulate a personalized care plan. We value testing technology to empower patients and providers in maximizing results. Here are some common tests your provider may ask you to have:
Blood Tests
Electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG)
Chest x-ray
Echocardiogram
Peripheral vascular ultrasound ("Duplex")
Exercise stress test
Nuclear stress test
Holter monitor
Ankle brachial index (ABI)
Common Cardiovascular Procedures
While prevention and minimal invasive treatments are our goal, some interventions are necessary to address some cardiovascular conditions. Here are some common procedures as a point of reference to help you understand their purpose in your overall treatment plan:
Transesophageal Echocardiography (TEE)
Cardioversion
Cardiac catheterization / coronary interventions
Peripheral angiogram / angioplasty / intervention
Electrophysiology Procedures
Electrophysiology (EP) is a field within cardiology that focuses on the electrical activity of the heart and treating arrhythmias.
Electrophysiology (EP) study
Catheter ablation
Pacemaker
Automatic implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (AICD)
