The cardiac imaging volume at Stanford has grown to have some of the highest imaging volumes in the country, demonstrating our experience and specialization.  The Stanford Echo lab is ICAEL (Intersocietal Commission for the Accreditation of Echocardiography Laboratories) accredited. 

• Approximately 30,000 transthoracic echoes per year
• Approximately 3,000 stress echoes per year
• Approximately 1300 transesophageal echoes per year
• Approximately 1500 cardiac MRIs performed per year
• Approximately 1500 cardiac CTs performed per year

Yearly Procedural Volumes
