Noninvasive Diagnostic Studies Echocardiography Echocardiography has great value in assessing congenital cardiac anomalies and should usually be the first advanced diagnostic study to be carried out if the history, the physical examination, the chest X ray, and the electrocardiogram suggest the presence of congenital heart disease

Noninvasive Diagnostic Studies Echocardiography The standard M-mode display and the two-dimensional display provide such information about cardiac anatomy as the size of the cardiac chambers .the connections of the great vessels abnormalities of the valves and subvalvular obstructions

Noninvasive Diagnostic Studies Doppler ultrasonography Doppler ultrasonography is useful in detecting septal defects and directly assessing the amount of blood that shunts through the defect e The size of the shunt through a septal defect can also be estimated from Doppler ultrasound studies by comparing the velocity of the blood flow through the aorta with velocity through the pulmonary artery
