Overview

Duplex ultrasound of renal artery may be helpful in the diagnosis of fibromuscular dysplasia. An increased peak systolic velocity, turbulent blood flow, and tortuosity of the mid and distal artery are the suggestive diagnostic tools for fibromuscular dysplasia.

Echocardiography/Ultrasound

• There are no echocardiography/ultrasound findings associated with [disease name].

OR

• Echocardiography/ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of [disease name]. Findings on an echocardiography/ultrasound suggestive of/diagnostic of [disease name] include:
  • [Finding 1]
  • [Finding 2]
  • [Finding 3]

OR

• There are no echocardiography/ultrasound findings associated with [disease name]. However, an echocardiography/ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of complications of [disease name], which include:
  • [Complication 1]
  • [Complication 2]
  • [Complication 3]
