Echocardiography is the cornerstone of the phenotyping process. Its highly versatile nature makes it the non-invasive tool of choice. This form of non-invasive assessment is ideal for performing serial evaluations of cardiac function or real-time monitoring during and after pharmacological or therapeutic intervention.

Echocardiography has the versatility that allows for rapid and comprehensive evaluation of myocardial function, valvular and vascular structure in animal models. Protocols are adaptable to the needs of the investigator.
