A Pediatric Echo, or pediatric echocardiogram, is a specialized ultrasound of the heart designed to evaluate the structure and function of a child’s heart. It uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of the heart, allowing doctors to assess the size, shape, and movement of the heart chambers and valves. Pediatric echo is commonly used to diagnose congenital heart defects, heart murmurs, valve problems, and other cardiac conditions in children. The procedure is non-invasive, safe, and painless, making it an ideal choice for children, including infants and toddlers. It provides valuable information to doctors for diagnosing and planning treatment for heart-related issues.
