"Check the cardiac color Doppler ultrasound What is the use of? What disease can you find? Is it to make me spend money?" A fan friend who does not understand the color Doppler ultrasound has asked like this. To be honest,

is to be honest. In fact, the effect of the heart ultrasound is quite strong. Today, Doctor Zhang will talk about the topic of heart disease in the heart ultrasound. I hope that more people will start to understand the role of cardiac ultrasound and can correctly understand why this test is done.

Zhang Zhizhi is explaining that the heart color ultrasound

is in real life. Many people feel that the heart is uncomfortable. When you go to the hospital for a doctor, the doctor will let the heart color Doppler ultrasound check. Many people will ask at this time: "What is the use of checking the color Doppler ultrasound? What diseases can you find?" This is indeed a big problem. It is not clear in a word and two words. You must read this article in front of the phone.

Cardiac color Doppler ultrasound. This examination item can detect many diseases, especially heart disease, which can be roughly divided into the following:

1. Cardiacow disease

cardiac ultrasound diagnosis of many valve diseases, it can even be said to be a classic "gold standard gold standard "The level of diagnosis. Therefore, Dr. Zhang first took out such diseases. The valve diseases mentioned here include two -pointed valve narrowing , two -pointed valve closing incomplete , aortic valve narrowing, and insufficiency of the aortic valve closure. These diseases can often be diagnosed with color Doppler ultrasound.

valve disease

2, congenital heart disease

Congenital heart disease, some of them are valve heart disease, but some are not, for example, room septal defect , intervals defect , arterial ducts are not closed , Farolo Four -Disiative, , Macrotetic Transfer, Triangular Migraphy Delivery and other diseases. These diseases can also be diagnosed and instructed by cardiac color Doppler ultrasound.

Congenital Heart Disease

3, Clarifying Heart Function

Cardiac ultrasound in modern medicine is another great practical function to clear the heart function, such as a patient chest tightness , the doctor suspects he has H ha. TML1 Heart failure . At this time, the first check -up method was the cardiac ultrasound, and the final judgment of the heart ultrasound of the cardiac ultrasound will also be an important basis for doctors to diagnose heart failure. Therefore, to clarify the heart function, the heart color Doppler ultrasound is really indispensable.

Cardiac function

4, cardiomyopathy

cardiomyopathy mainly, that is, hypervariac myocardiasis, dilatory myocardiasis, limited myocardial disease, cardiac ultrasound test for these. The disease can be given a clear diagnosis. Therefore, the diagnosis of cardiomyopathy is definitely the first inspection items to be done.

Myocardiasis

5, Hypertension

Dr. Zhang Zhizhi's own major is hypertension. I know that heart color ultrasound can help the diagnosis of hypertension. When it comes to hypertension, people generally think that using sphygmomanometer to measure blood pressure to diagnose. However, telling you that for some people who do not measure blood pressure, in fact, the heart color Doppler ultrasound also has an idea to remind them that they should pay attention to their blood pressure. I have also encountered many patients with high blood pressure in clinical practice that after finishing the heart of the heart, I realized that my blood pressure had been higher for a long time. The performance of high -blood pressure cardiac ultrasound performance has performances such as thickened intervals, thickening left ventricular walls, enlarged left atrium, and decreased left ventricular stretching function. Therefore, the diseased cardiac ultrasound of hypertension can also indirect diagnosis and high doubt.

Hypertension

6, Assistance to diagnose coronary heart disease

, mention the diagnosis of coronary heart disease. Pulse creation has nothing to do with the heart ultrasound, or It is said that cardiac ultrasound diagnosis cannot be diagnosed with coronary heart disease. If you know that way, you will be wrong. In some specific cases, heart ultrasound can help the diagnosis of coronary heart disease.For example, descriptions such as "abnormal ventricular wall segmental motion and reduced range of motion" in cardiac color ultrasound are actually indirect diagnostic criteria for coronary heart disease. Based on these manifestations, you can suspect that the patient has coronary heart disease or even myocardial infarction, and then make recommendations. The patient completed imaging examinations such as coronary angiography. Therefore, cardiac color ultrasound can help diagnose coronary heart disease.

Coronary heart disease

7, pericardial disease

There is a layer of pericardium outside the human heart muscle. Cardiac color ultrasound of pericardial disease can also help diagnose, such as cardiac tamponade and stenotic pericarditis. If nothing else, let’s just talk about pericardial effusion , the most common pericardial disease in clinical practice. Generally, a cardiac color ultrasound can make a clear diagnosis. Therefore, for relatively rare pericardial diseases, cardiac color ultrasound can also give a clear diagnosis.

Pericardial disease

8, Aortic dissection

Cardiac color ultrasound is not the best test for diagnosing aortic dissection. The best test must be aortic enhanced CT. But for some special cases, cardiac color Doppler ultrasound can help provide clues and assist in diagnosis. For example, if the aortic dissection is torn to the aortic root, and the doctor doing the cardiac color ultrasound is an experienced "master-level" cardiac color ultrasound doctor, the dissection at the aortic root may also be discovered through cardiac color ultrasound. This possibility does exist. I myself have experienced the power of such top doctors, so I will introduce this effect to everyone.

Aortic dissection

9, pulmonary embolism

Like aortic dissection, cardiac color Doppler ultrasound is not the best examination method for diagnosing pulmonary embolism. The best way to diagnose pulmonary embolism is pulmonary artery enhanced CT, but experienced cardiac color ultrasound doctors can highly suspect that the patient has pulmonary embolism through some indirect indications of cardiac color ultrasound. These indirect indications include right ventricular enlargement, right ventricular enlargement, Ventricular wall thickening, widening of the pulmonary trunk, pulmonary hypertension and other symptoms. Therefore, in some special cases of pulmonary embolism, cardiac color Doppler ultrasound can provide certain clues and assist in the diagnosis.

Pulmonary embolism

In fact, in addition to the 9 diseases mentioned above, cardiac color ultrasound can also diagnose cardiac tumors, aortic aneurysm, Kawasaki disease, early fetal heart screening and other diseases. It can be said that cardiac color ultrasound has many uses. Even for daily physical examinations, everyone can consider regular cardiac color ultrasound examinations, especially those with cardiovascular disease, should have regular examinations.

To sum up, cardiac color ultrasound can cure many diseases, but the final diagnosis of many diseases cannot rely solely on cardiac color ultrasound. In the end, it is necessary to combine clinical practice to obtain a specific diagnosis and provide targeted treatment under the guidance of professional doctors.

The above is my introduction to cardiac color ultrasound. If you think it is good, you can forward it to your relatives and friends so that more people can benefit.
