Echocardiogram is an ultrasound test of the heart that uses sound waves to create live images of its structure and function. It shows how well the heart chambers and valves work, measures pumping strength, and detects problems like valve disease, heart failure, or congenital defects. ECHO is safe, painless, and essential for assessing overall heart health.
ECHO measures key heart functions. Ejection Fraction shows pumping strength, while chamber size and wall thickness reveal structural changes. It checks valve function for leaks or narrowing, identifies wall motion issues linked to poor blood flow, and detects fluid around the heart that may affect performance.
