Discuss Cardiac ultrasound shows COVID-19 complications
June 11, 2020 -- Patients with COVID-19 can experience cardiac injury and dysfunction that can be visualized on echocardiography scans, according to a pair of letters in the Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography. The letters support the idea that echocardiography may provide a noninvasive method to study COVID-19 heart complications.
