Cardiac surgeons now routinely perform surgical procedures on the
heart that would have seemed unthinkable decades ago. But to many
patients, the real miracle is the amount of diagnostic information
that can be obtained on the heart without a single surgical incision. An
ultrasound is a non-invasive, non-radiating technique that sends

high-frequency sound waves into the body to produce images of soft
tissues and internal body organs. Our clinic offers mobile services
to take this state-of-the-art diagnostic tool to patients in our area
to better aid in their health care. Regional Cardiology Consultants
has acquired a new, high performance echocardiography system which
provides unprecedented image quality and blood flow analysis for
medical diagnosis. With this tool, the technicians at Regional
Cardiology can more accurately evaluate heart function and identify
cardiac abnormalities in the four heart valves and chambers, such as
mitral valve regurgitation, coronary artery disease, cardiomyopathy
and other such cardiovascular disorders. In addition to the heart,
blood vessels may be investigated using Carotid vascular extremity
studies as well as venous/arterial studies in both arms and legs.
