2D echocardiography often called 2D echo is a non-invasive procedure that is used to evaluate your heart’s functions and the sections. The procedure uses sound vibrations to generate images of different sections of your heart. This makes it easy for the doctor to diagnose damages, blocks, and the rate of blood flow.

When is a 2D echo test recommended?

2D echo gives your doctor information about the malfunctions of your heart, if any, and helps determine the appropriate treatment for you. An echocardiogram can diagnose various heart problems which include:

  • Atherosclerosis
  • Cardiomyopathy
  • Congenital heart disease
  • Heart failure
  • Aneurysm
  • Heart valve disease
  • Cardiac tumour
  • Pericarditis
  • Pericardial effusion or tamponade
  • Atrial or septal wall defects
  • Shunts

How is 2D echocardiography done?

A colourless gel is applied to your chest and a transducer is placed on your chest and pressed firmly. An ultrasound beam is sent to your heart through the chest. The transducer captures echoes of the sound waves coming from your heart. Using a computer, echos are converted to moving images and displayed on a monitor.

The transducer is moved across the chest by the technician to certain locations and angles. Thus the transducer helps to record various parts of the heart, its tissues and structures.

The test takes about 30 minutes to an hour. The procedure is always carried out in the presence of a radiologist and a cardiologist. The images viewed on the monitor can be printed on paper, or recorded on DVD, and handed over to the patient once the results are analysed.

This 2D echo is a non-invasive imaging procedure that is safe and carries no risks.
