Dobutamine Stress Echocardiogram

Service Description

A dobutamine stress echocardiogram is a heart test that uses ultrasound imaging while the drug dobutamine is given to make the heart beat faster and harder, simulating the effects of exercise. It’s typically used for patients who cannot perform a traditional treadmill stress test. This test helps detect coronary artery disease, assess heart muscle function, and evaluate how well the heart and valves respond under stress.
