What is a Echocardiography?

An echocardiography scan is a non-invasive test that uses high-frequency sound waves to create clear pictures of the heart, showing the chambers, valves, and how blood flows through it. It’s used to diagnose conditions like valve problems, heart failure, cardiomyopathy, and congenital heart defects, and to evaluate symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, or irregular heartbeats, helping with an accurate diagnosis and informed treatment planning.
