A member asked:
Could an echocardiogram show any arrhythmias?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: The heart will be seen contracting irregularly if there is an arhythmia. However, the exact type of rhythm problem is diagnosed by doing an ekg. I can tell there is a rhythm problem just by feeling your pulse or by watching the heart beat on an echocardiogram.

I would like to know what "transmitral filling pattern with wave fusion" means in an echocardiogram. The heart rate was 120bpm. The test was performed because of arrhytmias and tachycardia?
