Description

ECHO-cardiography uses high-frequency sound waves to produce images of the heart. During the test, a small handheld device called a transducer is placed on the chest, and sound waves are sent through the chest wall to the heart. The echoes produced by the sound waves bouncing off the heart's structures are then processed by a computer to create detailed images of the heart, including its chambers, valves, walls, and blood flow. ECHO-cardiography is a valuable diagnostic tool that provides detailed information about the heart's structure and function without any radiation or invasive procedures. It is commonly used in the evaluation of various heart conditions, including heart failure, valve diseases, congenital heart diseases, and more. ECHO-cardiography helps healthcare professionals make accurate diagnoses, develop appropriate treatment plans, and monitor the effectiveness of interventions.
