Overview
There are no specific echocardiography/ultrasound findings associated with coronavirus infection. Non specific echocardiographic findings can include left ventricular systolic dysfunction and pericardial effusion.
Echocardiography/Ultrasound
- There are no specific echocardiography/ultrasound findings associated with coronavirus infection.
- Non specific echocardiographic findings can include:
- Left ventricular systolic dysfunction[1]
- Pericardial effusion
- Myocardial edema
- Increased wall thickness with diffuse biventricular hypokinesis
