Yes, an ECG (electrocardiogram) and an EKG (Elektrokardiogramm) are the same test, used to measure the electrical activity of the heart. The term "EKG" is derived from the German spelling "Elektrokardiogramm," while "ECG" is the abbreviation commonly used in English. Both terms refer to the same diagnostic tool, and a 12-lead ECG/EKG refers to the standard configuration that records electrical signals from 12 different perspectives of the heart.
