L'ecocardiograma és una prova que fa servir ones de so d'alta freqüència (ultrasons) per obtenir imatges del cor. Això permet veure les aurícules, els ventricles, les vàlvules cardíaques, els grans vasos relacionats (aorta, artèria pulmonar, vena cava), i sobretot la capacitat de bombeig del cor i si hi ha flux retrògrad o bé dificultat per causa d'una malaltia valvular.
L'ecocardiograma obté no només imatges cardíaques sinó també molta informació relativa al seu funcionament: permet avaluar a més de l'anatomia, l'estat funcional del cor i el seu rendiment, i les anomalies estructurals que pugui presentar.
Un emissor d'ultrasons es passa per sobre del tòrax. Les ones reboten en el cor i l'"eco" que es produeix, és registrat per un ordinador. La informació és registrada en un monitor.
L'ecocardiograma és una prova sense cap mena de risc.
