What is an Echocardiogram?
An echocardiogram is a non-invasive ultrasound scan of the heart used to assess its structure and function, commonly for chest pain, shortness of breath, heart murmurs, and palpitations. The safe, painless test takes 30-45 minutes, using high-frequency sound waves to provide critical information about heart size, shape, chamber function, valve operation, and blood flow. It helps diagnose conditions like heart murmurs, heart failure, and congenital defects.
