Key result
Stress echocardiography provides effective non-invasive evaluation for CAD detection and prognosis.
Why the study?
Many non-invasive stress tests are available for detecting CAD and assessing prognosis, requiring evaluation of their diagnostic roles.
Coronary artery disease (CAD) represents the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in western countries. Many non-invasive stress tests are currently available for detecting CAD and assessing prognosis. Non-invasive stress techniques comprise exercise electrocardiographic (ECG) stress testing and imaging techniques, namely exercise/pharmacological stress echocardiography (SEcho) and exercise/pharmacological stress myocardial perfusion imaging (single-photon-emission computed tomography [SPECT]).
