Two-Dimensional Echocardiogram

A two-dimensional echocardiogram, often called an echo, is a painless imaging test that uses sound waves to create real-time pictures of the heart’s structure and movements. It helps doctors see the size and shape of the heart, how well the chambers and valves are working, and identify any abnormalities. The sound waves bounce off the heart tissues and are turned into images on a monitor. This test provides valuable information about heart function and health, aiding in the diagnosis and management of various cardiovascular conditions without the need for invasive procedures.
