How accurate is an echo doppler at determining e/a ratio. diangosis impaired lv relaxation. dr repeating tests next week 8 months later. e/a .78.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Almost 98%: There must be some suspicion by your cardiologist that something may be just not right and needs further investigation. I'm sure the cardiologist would not let you go home if he/she thought something was radically wrong. The cardiologist is just doing the right thing to be 100% correct.
