There are no known risks associated with the use of echocardiography
An alternative noninvasive test to transesophageal echocardiography is transthoracic echocardiography (TTE). TTE is commonly used to assess cardiac structure and function by obtaining images through the chest wall using ultrasound. While it may not provide the same level of detail as transesophageal echocardiography, particularly for certain cardiac conditions, it is generally more comfortable for patients and widely available.
Echocardiography is used to diagnose certain cardiovascular diseases
Echocardiography is an extremely safe procedure and no special precautions are required
No special measures need to be taken following echocardiography.

Echocardiography is a medical imaging technique that uses sound waves to create images of the heart. It provides information about the heart's structure, function, and blood flow, and helps diagnose various heart conditions, such as heart failure, heart valve disease, and congenital heart defects.
