It takes about 10-30 minutes to do a cardiac ultrasound examination.
Cardiac ultrasound is a common medical examination, used to evaluate heart structure, function and hemodynamics. If the examiner has no obvious abnormalities in heart structure and function, the examination time is relatively short, usually about 10 minutes. However, if the heart disease is obvious and no detailed diagnosis is made, the examination time is relatively long, which takes about 30 minutes.
In addition to ultrasound examination, the examiner can also cooperate with MRI examination, blood test and other medical examinations to help clarify the cause, which can reduce the probability of misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis.
