An echocardiogram is a diagnostic procedure that uses ultrasound to examine the heart. The echocardiogram allows the cardiologist (or radiologist) to see the heart as it beats, determine if the valves are working properly, determine the size of the chambers and blood vessels, and measure the thickness of the heart walls. 1, record 2, English, - echocardiography%20examination

Le radar météorologique sert en premier lieu à la détection des zones de précipitations ayant cours dans la situation météo du moment. Après traitement par des ordinateurs spécifiques, les échos radar sont affichés sur un écran où divers repères géographiques tels que frontières, rivières et lacs permettent de localiser les zones de précipitations. L'intensité des échos radar fournit une mesure quantitative des précipitations, exprimée en millimètres par heure (mm/h), présentée au moyen de zones coloriées.

Known also as echo or come-on, the high-low signal is probably the most important single weapon that the defenders possess in their arsenal or aggressive warfare. In its normal, recurring application, the high-low signal in a suit expressed the desire for a continuation of that suit, or an interest in that suit being played when partner obtains the lead. (The Official Encyclopedia of Bridge, 1971, p. 172). 1, record 13, English, - high%2Dlow%20signal
