ASE Guidelines

The ASE Guidelines refer to a set of recommendations provided by the American Society of Echocardiography for performing and interpreting echocardiograms, which are ultrasound tests used to assess heart health. These guidelines help standardize procedures to ensure accuracy, safety, and effective communication among healthcare professionals. They cover aspects like patient preparation, image acquisition, and reporting results. By following these guidelines, clinicians aim to improve the quality of care for patients with heart conditions, ensuring that echocardiography is used effectively to support diagnosis and treatment.
