Echocardiography releases high-frequency sound waves. An Echocardiogram is performed by placing a transducer on the chest and aiming it at the heart. The transducer releases high frequency sound waves and picks up the echoes of sound waves and transmits them as electrical impulses.  The Echocardiography Machine converts these impulses into moving pictures of the heart.
