We do not have a Standard for how many echocardiograms are to be performed by sonographers in the course of a day. Part II. Section 2.2.3 does state that 45 to 60 minutes or more must be allotted for a complete transthoracic echocardiogram. This means that there must not be less than 45 minutes scheduled for any echo.
