Cardiology Initiative
Successfully funding 5 echocardiogram systems
The Foundation has fully funded one of its top priorities for 2020 -- funding the purchase of 5 new echocardiogram ultrasound systems for patients at Palomar Medical Center Escondido and Palomar Medical Center Poway. With your help, we have provided $887,305 in funding for this cutting-edge technology.
An echocardiogram uses ultrasound to create a detailed moving image of the heart. With the new equipment, doctors can see even greater detail than older machines, providing a more accurate diagnosis. Because of you, as many as 50 Palomar Health patients per week can avoid having to undergo invasive exploratory surgery.
We're grateful to all the donors who helped fund this important project. You have our heartfelt thanks!
