An echocardiogram (echo) is a non-invasive imaging test that uses high-frequency sound waves (ultrasound) to create real-time images of the heart. It shows the size, shape, structure, and motion of the heart's chambers, valves, and blood flow, helping healthcare providers assess heart function and detect conditions like valve disorders, heart defects, or weakened heart muscles.
