2. Cardiac stress test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_stress_test

   A cardiac stress test is a cardiological examination that evaluates the cardiovascular system's response to external stress within a controlled clinical setting. This stress response can be induced through physical exercise (usually a treadmill) or intravenous pharmacological stimulation of heart rate.

4. Cardiology diagnostic tests and procedures - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiology_diagnostic...

   Cardiac stress testing is used to determine to assess cardiac function and to disclose evidence of exertion-related cardiac hypoxia. Radionuclide testing using thallium or technetium can be used to demonstrate areas of perfusion abnormalities. With a maximal stress test the level of exercise is increased until the person's heart rate will not ...

5. Technetium (99mTc) sestamibi - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technetium_(99mTc)_sestamibi

   Technetium (99m Tc) sestamibi (commonly sestamibi; USP: technetium Tc 99m sestamibi; trade name Cardiolite) is a pharmaceutical agent used in nuclear medicine imaging.The drug is a coordination complex consisting of the radioisotope technetium-99m bound to six (sesta=6) methoxyisobutylisonitrile (MIBI) ligands.

6. Myocardial perfusion imaging - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myocardial_perfusion_imaging

   This scan is done in conjunction with a cardiac stress test. The diagnostic information is generated by provoking controlled regional ischemia in the heart with variable perfusion. Planar techniques, such as conventional scintigraphy, are rarely used. Rather, single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is more common in the US. With ...

7. ST depression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ST_depression

   In a cardiac stress test, an ST depression of at least 1 mm after adenosine administration indicates a reversible ischaemia, while an exercise stress test requires an ST depression of at least 2 mm to significantly indicate reversible ischaemia. [6]
