Echocardiography, transthoracic, real-time with image documentation (2D), includes M-mode recording, when performed, complete, with spectral Doppler echocardiography, and with color flow Doppler echocardiography

AI EXPLANATION: A complete transthoracic echocardiogram, often referred to as an echo test or heart ultrasound, is a noninvasive imaging exam that checks the health and function of your heart. A clinician or sonographer glides a smooth handheld sensor across your chest, using high-frequency sound waves to generate moving 2D pictures of the heart chambers, walls, and valves. The exam also uses Doppler ultrasound technology to show the speed and direction of blood pumping through your heart vessels and valves.
