Difference between Color Doppler Ultrasound and Echocardiography

Color Doppler ultrasound and echocardiography are different names for the same examination. They are methods for examining the heart through two-dimensional ultrasound, color Doppler, M-mode ultrasound, pulsed Doppler, etc. The examination can clearly show the structure and position of the atrium, ventricle, valve, pericardium, etc., and clarify the positional relationship between the heart and the great vessels. It is helpful to diagnose congenital heart disease, heart valve disease and other heart diseases, and can provide basis for subsequent treatment.

It is recommended to go to a regular hospital for examination, pay attention to the results in time after examination, and decide the treatment plan according to the doctor's advice.
