Cardiac Ultrasound Technology

Magic Valley Medical Center is the first hospital in Idaho with the technology to transmit dynamic ultrasound images of the human heart to cardiac specialists in other communities. This cardiac ultrasound technology lets doctorscollaborate in cyberspace about heart problems and treatments.

This new technology is especially beneficial for our youngest patients. Local pediatricians treating premature babies with potential heart problems use to wait 12 to 24 hours for a video taped study to be delivered by courier to Boise, now thecardiologist has a firm diagnosis and results in 15 minutes.
