A member asked:

Would an echo show blockages in arteries? also would minor regurgitation of 3 separate valves be cause for concern ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Cardiologist: Echo will not show blockages in coronary arteries. Minor regurgitation in multiple valves needs to be followed regularly by serial echoes and cardiologist exam and recommendations
