Complete Echocardiogram With Doppler

North Carolina rates for HCPCS 93306

This is a full ultrasound exam of the heart done through the chest wall, not down the throat, producing moving images of the heart's chambers, valves, and walls along with color and spectral Doppler studies that show the direction and speed of blood flow. It's the complete version of the test, meaning it includes both the structural pictures and the full Doppler blood-flow assessment, rather than a partial or follow-up-only exam. It's the standard test used to evaluate heart function, valve problems, and pumping strength.
