2D Echo cardiography (also referred to as transthoracic echocardiography), is a quick and painless medical examination that uses high frequency sound waves, called ultrasound, to produce pictures of the heart's valves and chambers. The test provides information about the size and shape of the heart, how well the heart chambers and valves are working, and the presence of any damage to the heart.
The test can identify:
the structure of your heart - whether it is normal or abnormal;
the size or thickness of your heart;
your blood flow through your arteries (and thus how much oxygen there is in your bloodstream);
Your symptoms
