An Electrocardiogram (ECG) is a quick, simple, and non-invasive test that records the electrical activity of the heart. Small electrodes are placed on the chest, arms, and legs to capture signals that reflect how the heart is beating.
At Godavari Hospital, Rajahmundry, this test is performed under the guidance of Dr. Malleswara Rao, ensuring accuracy and expert interpretation.
