Overview

Echocardiography can show left ventricular hypertrophy and high-output cardiac failure. Ultrasound can detect an enlarged spleen or may demonstrate the cause of anemia such as uterine fibroids.

Echocardiography or ultrasound

  • Echocardiogram can show left ventricular hypertrophy since the cardiac tissue must exert more forcefully in order to deliver adequate oxygen to the tissues. Echocardiogram can also show high-output cardiac failure, since the cardiac output is increased (due to increased heart rate and stroke volume) in order to meet the metabolic demands of the peripheral tissues.[1]
  • Ultrasound can detect an enlarged spleen or may demonstrate the cause of anemia such as uterine fibroids which can contribute to blood loss.[2]
