Specializes in Cardiology

Echocardiogram: Its really best to discuss the findings with the physician who ordered the test to explain the findings in the context of your symptoms. Otherwise, you should discuss them with a cardiologist who has expertise in echocardiograms. Unfortunately, its not adequate for anyone to attempt to provide clarity to your test using this question and answer format. Hope that helps!
