thread_title: History and Tech. explanation?

message: I'm against a merger of Echocardiology and Echocardiography:
#Echocardiography describes the art and science of excamining the heart by ultrasound. The article of echocardiology describes one of several professions who performs echocardiography.
#Echocardiology (shouldn't it be echocardiologist?) is a seldom used term. (Echocardiographic) sonographer or echo-tech (slightly condecending) is more common
# The article about echocardiology is valid only in the USA (and perhaps Canada?). An article about sonographers in diferent countries would be interesting though.

message: I practice non-invasive cardiology in the United States.  I don't know a single MD who uses the term echocardiology in clinical practive.  Is this a term used in other countries?  Here we refer to it as echocardiography.  Should we remove this title?
:Done. "Echocardiology" is now a redirect to Cardiac sonographer.--Ekko 21:22, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

message: I was considering making a redirect of "stress echocardiogram" to this page, but I thought doing so might delay the creation of such a page which might very well be a whole page to itself & I am surprised that there isn't already. Nagelfar (talk) 05:56, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  stress echocardiogram 

message: An anonymous user deleted the indications section which I had posted some time ago. This user gave no explanation. There should be an indications section of some kind in this article and I wish I had an explicit explanation of when consensus in the field says that the test is indicated. Right now the content I put into that section does lack that information and only gives general information, which I still think has some place in this article.  Blue Rasberry (talk) 20:18, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I notice people routinely remove sections without explanations. Less information is not necessarily better for the general reader coming here for basic information. Returning the section was a good idea. 173.49.142.213 (talk) 23:45, 20 April 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Indications section

message: I work with Philips Healthcare and one of our recent projects has resulted in the development of “Anatomical Intelligence.” Anatomical Intelligence describes the use of organ modeling technology allowing clinicians to navigate and manipulate 3D images in terms of anatomies rather than X/Y/Z coordinates. I believe this is a significant contribution to ultrasound technology and would add value to the Echocardiography page under the “Three-dimensional echocardiography” section. Per Wikipedia’s Conflict of Interest policy, I have made every effort to ensure that my potential contribution has been written with a Neutral Point of View and welcome any feedback on the information below before contributing an edit to the page. 
 Approved, go ahead. Wilipino (talk) 11:59, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

message: This term is used as if everyone knew what a Health Society is. I don't. I suspect it is a USA euphemism for a medical insurance company. Can someone who knows fix it please?  MrDemeanour (talk) 13:47, 14 July 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Health Society 

message: Please briefly add content on/from this study or, more generally, on this type of heart imaging. It's featured in 2023 in science like so:
Researchers report the development of a viable wearable continuous heart ultrasound imager.
I think it would probably be good to at least very briefly mention it here (they're also using echocardiography aren't they? at the least they compare it "with a commercial device in four primary views of echocardiography").
Also uploaded the image on the right from the study in case it's useful somewhere (you can crop it).
