Can 2 separate echocardiograms miss a thrombosis of rca? both tests occur only 2 days apart

Dr. Anita Prakash answered

Specializes in Cardiology

Yes: A resting echocardiogram is not the test of choice to diagnose a right coronary artery thrombosis. A CT angiogram would diagnose that, or a conventional invasive angiogram ought to elucidate that finding. This is a very specific finding. A stress echocardiogram might suggest right coronary artery insufficiency by revealing regional wall motion abnormality. See a cardiologist.
