Summary

This study looks at whether general practitioners (GPs) can use a small, portable ultrasound machine in their office to find early signs of heart disease. It will include 300 adults aged 65 and older with heart risk factors, or adults with symptoms like shortness of breath or leg swelling. The goal is to see if GP-performed scans match expert readings, which could help catch heart problems earlier and reduce hospital visits.
