Most patients we treat at OHSU Knight Cardiovascular Institute will get a cardiac imaging test. OHSU’s team of cardiac imaging scientists and specialists is among the best in the world.

At OHSU, you’ll find:

• Our cardiac imaging team are experts in performing echocardiograms, cardiac CT scans, cardiac MRI and cardiac nuclear testing.
• We are one of the only teams in the region that can perform echocardiograms for patients with adult congenital heart disease.
• Our team pioneered the use of myocardial contrast echocardiogram (MCE). We are the only hospital on the West Coast to offer this advanced test that can detect coronary heart disease early.
• We were the first hospital in the Pacific Northwest to offer PET/MRI. This test combines MRI with a PET scan to produce highly detailed images of your heart.
• Our team offers advanced analysis of heart CT scans. We can measure how much heart vessels have narrowed and how much plaque (cholesterol and calcium) has built up.
• We work together with experts on heart valve disease, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, cardiac amyloidosis, cardiac sarcoidosis, adult congenital heart disease, coronary artery disease and more to offer advanced testing and treatments for these complex conditions.
