WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW: A transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) is a procedure used to check for problems with your heart. It will also show any problems in the blood vessels near your heart. Sound waves are sent through a handheld device placed on your chest.
Sometimes, one type of echocardiography, transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), using a probe positioned on the chest, will be normal and transesophageal electrocardiography (TEE) will be needed to detect the problem. Echocardiography has also been helpful in detecting cases where the outside lining of the heart is infected (pericarditis).
