What We Treat

Echos and EKGs can be used to monitor and diagnose a variety of heart conditions, such as:

  • Heart attack
  • Heart failure
  • Congenital heart disease
  • Cardiomyopathy
  • Endocarditis
  • Irregular heart rhythms
  • Coronary artery disease

How it Works

Though echos and EKGs both provide valuable information about your heart’s condition, they work in very different ways.

An echocardiogram, or “echo” is a specialized type of ultrasound machine. It uses sound waves to create a detailed image of the heart inside your body and show any visible problems.

An EKG uses several small sensors placed around your body to record the electrical signals that are produced by your heart as it beats. These signals are recorded and can be used to evaluate your heart’s health.

What to Expect

If you need an echo or EKG in Johns Creek, visit us for help. We’ll start by asking you a few diagnostic questions to obtain your medical history and help us identify what’s troubling you.

If you need an echo, we will use our echocardiogram machine for a noninvasive study of your heart. Your ultrasonographer will place some lubricating gel on your chest and then move a small transducer probe over your skin, imaging the internal structure of your heart.

For EKGs, we will attach several small electrode sensors to your chest and arms. They will capture data from your heart so we can tell how well it is functioning.
