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.
- Ultrasound can detect an enlarged spleen or may demonstrate the cause of anemia such as uterine fibroids which can contribute to blood loss.[1]
