What can neonatal heart ultrasound detect?

Neonatal cardiac ultrasound is a safe and non-invasive examination method, which is used to examine and evaluate the neonatal heart in detail through ultrasonic technology. Neonatal cardiac ultrasound examination can detect many lesions and abnormalities, including heart defects, heart position and size, ventricular wall motion, arterial and venous diseases and heart valve lesions, etc.. The specific analysis is as follows:

1. Cardiac defects

Neonatal color Doppler ultrasound can detect various types of cardiac defects, such as ventricular septal defect, atrial septal defect and patent ductus arteriosus.

2. Heart position and size The position and size

of the heart can be determined by cardiac color Doppler ultrasound, including the length, width and thickness of the heart.

3. Ventricular Wall MovementColor Doppler

echocardiography can detect ventricular wall motion, including left and right ventricular

wall movement.4. Arterial and venous diseasesColor Doppler echocardiography can

detect arterial and venous conditions, such as arterial stenosis, aneurysms and thrombi.

5. Heart valve disease Cardiac color doppler

ultrasound can also check out the function of the heart valve and lesions, such as mitral valve prolapse and aortic valve stenosis, etc..
