Couple Echocardiography (Heart Ultrasound)
Comprehensive Heart Ultrasound Assessment for Couples
The Couple Echocardiography (Heart Ultrasound) service at Phoenix Ultrasound is a comprehensive cardiac assessment designed for couples who wish to evaluate their heart health together in a single visit.
This package includes two individual adult echocardiography scans, one for each partner, performed separately and reported individually to ensure accurate and personalised assessment.
Echocardiography is a safe, non-invasive ultrasound examination that uses sound waves to produce real-time images of the heart, allowing detailed evaluation of cardiac structure and function without radiation exposure.
This service is ideal for couples who value preventative cardiovascular screening, have cardiac risk factors, or would like reassurance regarding their heart health.
