Echo Cardiography (2D, M Mode)
An echocardiogram, often referred to in the medical community as a cardiac ECHO or simply an ECHO, is a sonogram of the heart. Also known as a cardiac ultrasound, it uses standard ultrasound techniques to image two-dimensional slices of the heart.
In addition to creating two-dimensional pictures of the cardiovascular system, an echocardiogram can also produce accurate assessment of the velocity of blood and cardiac tissue at any arbitrary point using pulsed or continuous wave Doppler ultrasound. This allows assessment of cardiac valve areas and function, any abnormal communications between the left and right side of the heart, any leaking of blood through the valves (valvular regurgitation), and calculation of the cardiac output as well as the ejection fraction. We are doing Echo Cardiography since 13 years and are renowned for our job precision.

COLOR DOPPLER
A Doppler ultrasound test uses reflected sound waves to evaluate blood as it flows through a blood vessel. It helps doctors evaluate blood flow through the major arteries and veins of the arms, legs, and neck. It can show blocked or reduced blood flow through narrowing in the major arteries of the neck that could cause a stroke. It also can reveal blood clots in leg veins (deep vein thrombosis, or DVT) that could break loose and block blood flow to the lungs (pulmonary embolism). During pregnancy, Doppler ultrasound may be used to look at blood flow in an unborn baby (fetus) to check the health of the fetus.
During Doppler ultrasound, a handheld instrument (transducer) is passed lightly over the skin above blood vessel. The transducer sends and receives sound waves that are amplified through a microphone. The sound waves bounce off solid objects, including blood cells. The movement of blood cells causes a change in pitch of the reflected sound waves (called the Doppler effect). If there is no blood flow, the pitch does not change. Information from the reflected sound waves can be processed by a computer to provide graphs or pictures that represent the flow of blood through the blood vessels. These graphs or pictures can be saved for future review or evaluation.

Whole Body Ultrasound
Ultrasound imaging, also called ultrasound scanning or sonography, involves exposing part of the body to high-frequency sound waves to produce pictures of the inside of the body. Ultrasound exams do not use ionizing radiation (as used in x-rays). Because ultrasound images are captured in real-time, they can show the structure and movement of the body's internal organs, as well as blood flowing through blood vessels. Ultrasound imaging is a noninvasive medical test that helps physicians diagnose and treat medical conditions.
X-Ray
X-rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation, just like visible light. In a health care setting, a machines sends are individual x-ray particles, called photons. These particles pass through the body. A computer or special film is used to record the images that are created. Structures that are dense (such as bone) will block most of the x-ray particles, and will appear white. Metal and contrast media (special dye used to highlight areas of the body) will also appear white. Structures containing air will be black and muscle, fat, and fluid will appear as shades of gray. Advanced X-Ray of Chest, Bone, Sinus & Dental are being taken up on latest X-Ray machine on most advanced X Ray Plate.
E.C.G
The electrocardiogram (ECG) is a diagnostic tool that measures and records the electrical activity of the heart in exquisite detail. Interpretation of these details allows diagnosis of a wide range of heart conditions. These conditions can vary from minor to life threatening.
TREADMILL TEST (TMT)
Treadmill test helps to rule out or confirm the presence of heart diseases. The treadmill test is also referred to as ’stress test’. It measures the tolerance levels of the heart to the particular exercise. The other terms of this test are exercise graded test, physiologic stress test and exercise cardiac stress test. The individual is taken to the laboratory. The blood pressure and heart rate are checked for. This test is performed in a regular manner, if the individual has significant risk factors for coronary artery disease.It also helps to evaluate the exercise response of the blood pressure by individual with borderline levels.It also helps to check out irregular heart beats, associated with exercise. The tolerance levels of individuals with shortness of breath and fatigue is monitored. Other tests, such as nuclear stress test, cardiac catheterization and Echo stress test are recommended on the basis of the results of the treadmill test. It also aids to decipher the use of stents, angioplasty and surgery, in previous treatment procedures.
Stress test or exercise test helps to determine the kind and severity of exercise, which is apt for the particular individual. The test requires the individual to walk slowly on the treadmill. The inclination angle and the speed are gradually increased. The blood pressure and heart rates are checked, at the end of the session. Electrodes that are sticky are attached to the hips, chest and shoulders. This is in turn connected to the electrocardiogram (ECG ). The various parts of the heart are represented by the different leads on the paper.

Pulmonary Function Test
Pulmonary Function Test designed to measure how well the lungs are working. Pulmonary function tests gauge how the lungs are carrying out their tasks of expanding and contracting (when a person inhales and exhales) and of exchanging oxygen and carbon dioxide efficiently between the air (or other gases) within the lungs and the blood.
For example, one pulmonary function test calls for the patient to breathe into a machine called a spirometer. It is a mechanical device that records the changes in lung size as air is inhaled and exhaled and the time it takes for the patient to do this task.

Electroencephalogram (EEG)
Electroencephalogram (EEG) is a test used to detect abnormalities related to electrical activity of the brain. This procedure tracks and records brain wave patterns. Small metal discs with thin wires (electrodes) are placed on the scalp, and then send signals to a computer to record the results. Normal electrical activity in the brain makes a recognizable pattern. Through an EEG, doctors can look for abnormal patterns that indicate seizures and other problems.
The most common reason an EEG is performed is to diagnose and monitor seizure disorders. EEGs can also help to identify causes of other problems such as sleep disorders and changes in behavior. EEGs are sometimes used to evaluate brain activity after a severe head injury or before heart or liver transplantation.

BMD
Bone Mineral Density (BMD) test measures the density of minerals (such as Calcium) in bones using an Ultrasound. This information is used to estimate the strength of bones. Osteopenia leads to Osteoporosis. So the thicker bones are, the longer it takes to get Osteoporosis. Although Osteoporosis can occur in men, it is common in women older than age 65. If bone density is lower than normal, you can take steps to increase your bone strength and reduce your chances of having a fracture. Some ways to increase bone density and strength include combining calcium and vitamin D supplements with weight-bearing exercise.
Ultrasound based BMD test is generally used to look for problems. Ultrasound is quick, painless, and does not use potentially harmful radiation like X-rays.
BMD test is suggested for :
1. Postmenopausal women. 2. All women with weak health. 3. Men and women who have hyperparathyroidism. 4. Men and women who have been taking Corticosteroids, such as Prednisone. 5.Follow-up of how well treatment for Osteoporosis is working for men and women being treated for 2 Years or longer.
