Overview

Echocardiography is not especially useful in the diagnosis of ARDS, except under circumstances where cardiogenic pulmonary edema has not yet been excluded.

Echocardiogram

An echocardiogram may be useful in cases where it is unclear whether hypoxemia and bilateral pulmonary infiltrates may be due to cardiac dysfunction (e.g., heart failure).
