Does dobutamine stress echocardiography accurately detect coronary artery disease compared to coronary angiography in adult patients with suspected CAD?
Dobutamine stress echocardiography is a highly sensitive and accurate non-invasive tool for detecting coronary artery disease.
Naser et al. (2011) conducted an observational in Suspected coronary artery disease (n=86). Dobutamine stress echocardiography vs. Coronary angiography was evaluated on Detection of coronary artery disease. Dobutamine stress echocardiography showed high diagnostic performance for detecting coronary artery disease compared to coronary angiography, with 97% sensitivity, 83% specificity, and 95% accuracy.
