Answer:
The diagnosis of cardiac tamponade can be suspected on history and physical exam findings. ECG may be helpful, especially if it shows low voltages or electrical alternans, which is the classic ECG finding in cardiac tamponade due to the swinging of the heart within the pericardium that is filled with fluid.

Explanation:
One such test is an echocardiogram, which is an ultrasound of your heart. It can detect whether the pericardium is distended and if the ventricles have collapsed due to low blood volume. Your chest X-rays may show an enlarged, globe-shaped heart if you have cardiac tamponade.
