Stress Echo in Saket; A test to evaluate the structure and function of the heart is called an echocardiogram (echo). To determine how well the heart functions under stress, a stress echocardiography is a test that is performed. The "stress" can be brought on by either treadmill activity or the drug dobutamine. If you are unable to exercise, a dobutamine stress echocardiography may be performed. When dobutamine is injected into a vein, the heart beats more quickly. It simulates how exercise affects the heart. A transducer (similar to a microphone) emits ultrasonic sound waves at a frequency that cannot be heard during an echo. When the transducer is placed on the chest at certain locations and angles, the ultrasonic sound waves move through the skin and other body tissues to the heart tissues, where the waves bounce or "echo" off of the heart structures. The transducer picks up the reflected waves and sends them to a computer. The computer displays the echoes as images of the heart walls and valves.
