Overview
2D Echo Test (Echocardiography) Overview
Advanced Heart Scan for Accurate Diagnosis
A 2D Echo (2D Echocardiography) is a safe, painless, and non-invasive ultrasound test used to evaluate the structure and function of the heart in real time.
At ONUS Robotic Hospitals, we use advanced cardiac imaging technology to detect heart conditions early and guide precise treatment decisions.

FAQs
1. What is a 2D Echo test?
A 2D Echo is an ultrasound-based test that uses sound waves to create live images of the heart and evaluate its function.
2. When do you need a 2D Echo?
Doctors may recommend it if you have:
→ Chest pain or discomfort
→ Shortness of breath
→ Palpitations or irregular heartbeat
→ High blood pressure
→ History of heart disease
→ Swelling in legs (possible heart failure)
→ Pre-surgery fitness evaluation
3. What conditions can a 2D Echo detect?
→ Heart valve diseases
→ Cardiomyopathy (weak heart muscle)
→ Congenital heart defects
→ Pericardial effusion (fluid around the heart)
→ Heart failure
→ Blood clots or infections
4. How is the test performed?
→ You lie comfortably on an examination table
→ A gel is applied to the chest
→ A probe (transducer) is moved over the chest
→ Live images of the heart are recorded
⏱ Duration: 15–30 minutes
💉 No injections | No pain | No radiation
5. Is 2D Echo safe?
Yes. It is completely safe as it uses sound waves and does not involve radiation.
