Can someone tell me what does an echocardiogram consist of?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Echocardiogram: An echocardiogram uses sound waves to create images, or pictures, of the heart from outside the body. It is a safe and essentially painless test that yields a great deal of information about the heart structures.
