At Cardiologists of Lubbock, we do not just promise state-of-the-art
technology and advanced cardiology care, we deliver it. Here
are just a few of our services:
Echocardiography/peripheral vascular lab Proudly,
we offer the only in-office accredited lab in town. We can
detect poor circulation and blood clots, carotid artery
blockage and potential for stroke, heart strength and valve
function.
Anticoagulation testing Specially trained
staff are available to provide in-office ProTime®
finger-stick blood tests.
Coronary angiography An X-ray of the blood
vessels of the heart, which gives us a clear picture of
the arteries and also shows whether there is any plaque
buildup, which can lead to heart attacks in the future.
Nuclear cardiology testing We offer leading-edge
nuclear cameras to assess coronary blood flow and ventricular
function.
Event recorder You will be issued a cardiac
event monitor for 30 days in order to record abnormal heart
rhythms that occur infrequently.
Lower extremity venous & arterial ultrasound
A device is used on specific areas of your legs to look
at the blood flow and internal condition of your leg veins
and arteries.
Holter monitor The size of a hand-held cassette
player, is worn for 24 to 48 hours. This test is useful
for detecting irregular heartbeats that may not appear during
an electrocardiogram at our office.
Stress echocardiogram This test involves
a simultaneous treadmill test and an echocardiogram. It
helps us evaluate patients with resting electrocardiogram
changes and/or atypical chest pain.
Exercise treadmill stress test This test
measures your hearts response to physical stress from
brisk walking and/or jogging.
