[38] An echocardiogram, also known as an echo, is a scan of the heart. It is similar to ultrasound scanning used in pregnancy because it uses sound waves to build up a picture of your heart. An echo is not the same as an electrocardiogram, also known as an ECG, which is a simple and useful test that records the rhythm, rate and electrical activity of your heart. What does an echocardiogram show? A. The Echo only pays attention to your voice conversations when you issue the wake word, “Alexa.” It records the next few seconds, then sends the recording of the command to the cloud, so the device can fulfill the request. Internet rumors have claimed that the Echo records your conversations constantly, but that’s simply not true. Unless the physical mute button is pressed, the device does listen constantly for a very small number of keywords (in particular, “Alexa”) but doesn’t record until that keyword is heard. Q. What is Alexa and how does it relate to Echo?

A transoesophageal echocardiography, or TOE, takes detailed pictures of your heart from your oesophagus (the tube that connects your throat to your stomach) which lies behind your heart. This test is used to get closer and more defined images of the heart as it can detect areas of the heart that are not as easy to see with a standard echo. There are no risks or side effects from having a standard echo. Your doctor will discuss any risks or side effects if you need a different type of echo. Other types of echocardiogram

An echocardiogram may be done while the heart is beating faster – a stress echo is performed while deliberately increasing the heart rate with either exercise on a treadmill or stationary bike, or with medication given through a vein. This test can help to diagnose coronary heart disease as it shows the coronary arteries in the heart aren’t getting as much oxygen rich blood as they should.
