Overview
There are no echocardiography findings associated with Whipple's disease. However, an echocardiography may be helpful in the diagnosis of cardiac complications in Whipple's disease.
Echocardiography/Ultrasound
- There are no echocardiography findings associated with Whipple's disease. However, an echocardiography may be helpful in the diagnosis of cardiac complications in [Whipple's disease]. which include:
- myocardial hypertrophy [1]
- endocardial and intramyocardial echogenic infiltrations in heart [1]
- infectious endocarditis [2]
