Echocardiogram (ECHO) :

An echocardiogram (echo) is a simple test which uses sound waves (ultrasound) to take a moving picture of your heart. It allows your doctor to see how your heart muscle is working and how your heart valves are opening and closing.

This common test is done to look at the size and functioning of your heart. It can see how well the heart is pumping, whether the heart valves are opening and closing normally, determine if there is any clot in your heart, detect infection on your valves or fluid surrounding your heart and signs of heart failure.
