Clinical Diagnostics
Six tests. One standard.
The full suite of non-invasive cardiac diagnostics, performed at your clinic by our sonographer network and reported by consultant cardiologists.
Stress Echo
Cardiac ultrasound performed under physical or pharmacological stress to assess how the heart performs under load.
Holter Monitor
Continuous ECG recording over 24–48 hours to capture intermittent rhythm disturbances.
BP Monitor
Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring over a full day/night cycle to assess true blood pressure patterns.
Stress ECG
An exercise ECG to assess the heart's electrical response to physical exertion.
ECG
A resting electrocardiogram capturing the heart's electrical activity at a single point in time.
48hReports reach the referring GP within 48 hours.
Patients can book directly or via GP referral — both pathways are live.
Ultrasound Education
Training the next generation of cardiac sonographers.
A structured sonography training program run inside a working diagnostic practice — scanning real patients under supervision from the start.
- Duration
- 3 months
- Structure
- Mixture of practical, hands-on tuition alongside structured course notes and lecture material.
- Entry requirements
- A bachelor's degree in a biomedical or health science discipline.
“The sonography program gave me real hands-on scanning experience from week one, not just theory.”

Biomedical Research
Echocardiography for clinical trials.
Cardiolab provides trial-grade cardiac imaging for research partners including Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, the Doherty Institute and Nucleus Network.
Flagship study · Completed 2017NCT03062956
First-in-human dosing of MYK-491, a cardiac myosin activator
A randomised, placebo-controlled Phase 1 study of MYK-491 (later known as danicamtiv) in healthy adult volunteers, sponsored by MyoKardia, Inc. and run at Nucleus Network, Melbourne. Cardiolab provided the trial’s echocardiography — transthoracic echo screening and LVEF/LVFS measurement against the study’s eligibility and outcome criteria.
MyoKardia was subsequently acquired by Bristol Myers Squibb for US$13.1 billion in cash (announced October 2020).

Patient & Referrer Feedback
“The whole process was quick and reassuring — I had my scan done locally and my GP had the results within two days.”
“As a referring GP, I appreciate how fast and clear the reports come back. It's made a real difference for my patients.”
“I felt well looked after throughout my daughter's echocardiogram — the team explained everything clearly.”
