Adult Echocardiography
We provide healthcare systems with cardiac sonographers who are specially trained to deliver high-quality imaging for assessing, diagnosing, and managing cardiovascular conditions.
Advanced Ultrasound for Cardiovascular Health
Our cardiac sonographers can perform a wide range of advanced echocardiographic exams, whether it’s assessing abnormal EKG findings, offering clarity for unexplained chest pain, or diagnosing signs of heart failure. Backed by expert knowledge of cardiac anatomy and Doppler techniques, they deliver the diagnostic clarity providers need for confident, timely decision-making across routine and complex cases.
Expert Care with Exceptional Reach
120+ highly trained and credentialed sonographers.
BB Imaging’s cardiac sonographers hold RDCS or RCS certification and are proficient in adult echocardiography. Through our expansive and connected network, these specialists are deployed across urban and rural communities, performing exams in alignment with ASE standards and collaborating with in-person or remote physicians to ensure consistent, patient-centered care.

From Backlog to Breakthrough
A clinic in Florida was facing a five-month imaging backlog and struggling to serve more than 8-10 patients per day. By partnering with BB Imaging, they implemented a scalable solution that reduced appointment delays, improved continuity of care, and expanded access to cardiovascular sonography for the entire patient community.
