NCRL (Echo Lab)

Overview of Services

The Johns Hopkins Hospital Echocardiography Lab is a state-of-the-art center with a strong tradition of research excellence. The echocardiography lab (echo lab) is actively involved with several projects to improve diagnostic capabilities of non-invasive imaging with current research interests including; strain imaging, myocardial works, cardiotoxicity, transcatheter aortic valve replacements, tricuspid and mitral valve interventions, blood speckle imaging, 3D imaging technology, and so much more. We assist with all imaging aspects of the clinical research process, including protocol development, onsite training and interpretation of transthoracic echocardiograms, stress testing, and transesophageal echocardiograms. Expertly staffed by board certified Cardiologists and specialized cardiac sonographers, the echo core lab provides strict quality assurance, exceptional turnaround times, and high-quality image storage.
