A 2D Echo (Two-Dimensional Echocardiogram) is a non-invasive test that uses sound waves to create images of the heart, allowing specialists to assess its structure and function.

A 2D Echo is performed to diagnose and monitor heart conditions, evaluate heart function, and detect abnormalities in the heart’s structure.

Individuals experiencing symptoms like chest pain, shortness of breath, or irregular heartbeats, or those with a history of heart disease, should consider a 2D Echo.

A 2D Echo uses ultrasound waves to produce images of the heart. A transducer is placed on the chest, emitting sound waves that bounce off the heart structures and create detailed images.

Yes, a 2D Echo is a safe and painless procedure with no known risks or side effects.

HBsAg is a surface antigen of the hepatitis B virus, detected in the blood during HBV infection.

Individuals at risk of HBV infection or needing routine screening should undergo this test.

No, the test involves a simple blood draw, which may cause slight discomfort but is generally well-tolerated.

A positive result indicates the presence of HBV infection.

No, additional tests may be required to distinguish between acute and chronic infection.

The Cortisol Test measures cortisol levels in the blood to assess adrenal gland function and diagnose conditions related to hormone imbalances and stress.

No fasting is required, but follow specific timing instructions provided by your healthcare provider. Inform them about any medications you are taking.

Cortisol levels typically vary throughout the day. Morning levels are usually highest, so the test is often scheduled in the morning.

Abnormal cortisol levels can indicate conditions such as Cushing’s syndrome, Addison’s disease, or other adrenal disorders. Further evaluation may be needed.

Results are generally available within 24 to 48 hours after the blood sample is collected, allowing for prompt review and diagnosis.
