TTE is the type of echocardiogram that most people will have.
An echocardiogram allows doctors to see the heart beating. It also shows the heart valves and other structures. In some cases, your lungs, ribs, or body tissue may prevent the sound waves and echoes from providing a clear picture of heart function. If this is a problem, the sonographer may inject a small amount of liquid (contrast) through an IV to better see the inside of the heart.
