The importance of transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) to exclude left atrial (LA) and left atrial appendage (LAA) thrombus prior to cardioversion for atrial fibrillation (AF) has been debated in patients who are anticoagulated prior to cardioversion.
Exercise: Regular physical activity strengthens the heart and improves blood circulation. Heart imaging, such as echocardiograms or CT scans. Diet: Follow a heart-healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats. The Mediterranean diet, in particular, has been shown to lower heart disease risk.

Echocardiogram An echocardiogram uses sound waves to produce a detailed image of the heart, allowing doctors to see the size of the heart chambers and how well the heart is pumping blood. Regular physical activity can strengthen the heart and improve circulation. The following diagnostic tools are commonly used: 1.
The algorithm uses deep learning to analyse routine ultrasound scans of the heart ( echocardiograms ) to detect disease that often goes undetected during standard assessments. Circulation.
