Echocardiography, commonly referred to as "Echo," is a heart examination using high-frequency sound waves (ultrasound). It employs the principle of sending safe sound waves through the chest and receiving the reflected sound to create images displayed on a screen. This method visualizes the size and function of heart muscles and valves to determine whether they are normal or abnormal.
Potential benefits
- It is a safe examination method that poses no risks or discomfort to the body.
- It can be performed on method of all ages and genders, from infants to the elderly, because high-frequency sound waves have important properties that do not pose any danger to cells, do not cause cell mutation, or abnormal cell growth leading to cancer.
