A member asked:

I had my echo yesterday they were talking about something i looked worried then then told me not to,that my heart was just hiding on them how can be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bad windows: People come in different shapes and may have poor echocardiographic windows: the ultrasound waves may not penetrate as well, making it difficult to get good images. We end up adjusting the probe position, frequency or settings to try to see the heart better when it "hides" like that.
