What Does My EKG Report Indicate?
My older sister Louise age 65 I just found out had a echogram. She is very big in size to. I was looking up what the test is for. She was suppose to have gallbladder sergury on Oct 5th. I guess they do an EKG before. Now an echgram. So I assume checking more into the heart?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Yes, an echo takes a look at the heart. It would look at how the heart is working- how the muscles pump, how the blood is pumped out and the size of the various chambers.
I hope this helps
