Overview
Transthoracic echocardiography can be useful in the diagnostic workup of patients presenting with syncope. This evaluation is especially warranted in patients who are suspected to have underlying cardiovascular disorders.
Echocardiography
- Transthoracic echocardiography can be useful in the diagnostic workup of patients presenting with syncope. This evaluation is especially warranted in patients who are suspected to have underlying cardiovascular disorders.[1]
