Our Columbus Cardiac Testing Services
Nuclear Scans
A nuclear stress test or pharmacological stress test is one of the most comprehensive cardiac tests in Columbus for determining whether your heart is getting enough blood flow. To perform the test, we inject a small amount of Cardiolite into your blood through an IV, and then a special camera captures detailed images of your heart. If you are scheduled for a nuclear scan, please download our Caffeine Worksheet, Pharmacological Cardiolite Worksheet, or our Stress Cardiolite Worksheet for instructions on your procedure.
This service is accredited by the American College of Radiology.
Stress Echocardiograms
A stress echo is another valuable cardiac screening tool that determines whether your heart is getting enough blood flow under physical stress. For this test, ultrasound images are taken of your heart before and after exercise, allowing us to see how well your heart functions when working harder. If you are scheduled for a stress echocardiogram, please download our Stress Echo Worksheet and our Caffeine Worksheet for instructions.
This service is accredited by ICAEL, the Intersocietal Commission for the Accreditation of Echo Laboratories.
Echocardiograms
An echocardiogram is a resting ultrasound of your heart that provides crucial information about your heart’s structure and function. This non-invasive Columbus cardiac test examines the movement of your heart valves and walls, helping us detect potential issues early. If you are scheduled for an echocardiogram, please download our Echocardiogram Worksheet for instructions.
Stress Testing
A stress test is an essential cardiac screening in Columbus used to evaluate your heart’s maximum functional capacity and establish safe guidelines for physical activities. During this test, you’ll walk on a treadmill while we monitor your body’s physiological responses to exercise, including heart rate and blood pressure. If you are scheduled for a stress test, please download your Stress Echo Worksheet below.
