An echo is a reflection of sound waves. When a sound is produced, its waves travel and bounce off surfaces; the returning waves reach the listener as an echo. This is why the term Echo is tied to sound waves. In everyday life you hear echoes when sound bounces off canyon walls or other surfaces. In medical contexts, ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves and reads the echoes that bounce back to create images or measure structures, but the fundamental idea is about sound waves, not the brain, an image by itself, or a disease.
