Our Cardiovascular Health Check Services
A cardiovascular health check can help spot potential problems early. During your consultation, we’ll discuss which tests you need based on your health. We only recommend diagnostic tests that will be truly helpful for you. We’ll find the best approach whether you experience chest pain or blood pressure problems, have a family history of cardiovascular diseases, such as coronary heart disease, or have experienced a heart attack in the past.
Our private cardiac screening services include:
- Private ECG (Electrocardiogram): A simple test that measures the electrical activity of your heart to detect irregular heart rates or arrhythmias, like atrial fibrillation.
- Echocardiogram Private: This ultrasound test uses sound waves to produce detailed images of your heart muscle, helping to diagnose conditions like heart failure or coronary artery disease.
- Private Cardiopulmonary Exercise Stress Test (MVO2): Measures how well your heart muscle responds to exercise, providing insights into overall heart function and blood vessel health.
- Private Dobutamine Stress Echocardiogram (DSE): For patients who cannot exercise, this test simulates the effect of physical activity on your heart muscle, evaluating potential issues with blood flow in the coronary arteries.
- Private 24 Hour Heart Monitor (UK): This wearable device monitors your heart rate and rhythm over 24 hours, detecting abnormalities such as atrial fibrillation.
- Private Cardiac MRI: A highly detailed scan using no X-rays but vibrating molecules to create images of your heart. It is ideal for assessing heart muscle health without radiation.
- Private Cardiac CT scanning (CTCA): A highly detailed scan using X-ray waves to create images, ideal for assessing heart blood vessels.
London Cardiovascular Clinic offers many other private cardiology tests for your heart health.
These tests provide detailed information on your heart’s structure and function, ensuring your consultant cardiologist can create a personalised treatment plan. We offer flexible appointment times and thorough consultation to discuss your symptoms and select the most appropriate diagnostic approach.
