Echocardiography is a test that produces live images of your heart using sound waves. An echocardiogram is a name given to the image. This test allows your doctor to monitor the function of your heart and its valves. An echocardiogram may be ordered by your doctor for a variety of reasons. They may have discovered something unusual in other tests or while listening to your heartbeat with a stethoscope, for example. If you have an irregular heartbeat, your doctor may want to examine the heart valves or chambers, as well as the ability of your heart to pump. They may also order one if you have symptoms of heart disease, such as chest pain or shortness of breath, or if your EKG is abnormal (electrocardiogram). Transthoracic echocardiography is used in a stress echocardiogram, but the images are taken before and after you've exercised or taken medication to make your heart beat faster. This allows your doctor to assess how your heart responds to stress.
