The statement above is FALSE.

An electrocardiogram (abbreviated as EKG or ECG) represents a recording of the heart's electrical activity. ECG is a non-invasive diagnostic modality that has a substantial clinical impact on investigating the severity of cardiovascular diseases. The heart is a mechanical pump whose activity is governed by the electrical conduction system that can be recorded with ECG.

If a doctor wants to know about the function of the heart valves directly, it is necessary to do an auscultation examination using a stethoscope to hear whether the heart sounds are normal or abnormal. This is because the sound that can be heard during auscultation is the sound of activity from the heart valves themselves.
