[citation needed] The heart rate formula most often used for the Bruce is the Karvonen formula (below). A more accurate formula, offered in a study published in the journal, Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, is 206.9 - (0.67 x age) which can also be used to more accurately determine VO2 Max, but may produce significantly different results.
The nuclear stress test exhibits a sensitivity of 81% and a specificity ranging from 85 to 95%. [22] To arrive at the patient's post test likelihood of disease, the interpretation of the stress test result necessitates the integration of the patient's pretest likelihood with the test's sensitivity and specificity.
Abnormalities in cardiac function may be manifested as a decrease in LVEF and/or the presence of abnormalities in global and regional wall motion. For normal subjects, peak filling rates should be between 2.4 and 3.6 end diastolic volume (EDV) per second, and the time to peak filling rate should be 135-212 ms. [citation needed]

Duke treadmill scores typically range from –25 (highest risk) to +15 (lowest risk). One-year mortality and five-year survival rates respectively for the results of the Duke treadmill score have been reported as follows: [4] [5] [6] less than or equal to –11: 5.25%, 65% –10 to 4: 1.25%, 90% greater than or equal to 5: 0.25%, 97%

The underlying principle is, under conditions of stress, diseased myocardium receives less blood flow than normal myocardium. MPI is one of several types of cardiac stress test. As a nuclear stress test, the average radiation exposure is 9.4 mSv, which when compared with a typical 2 view chest X-ray (.1 mSv) is equivalent to 94 Chest X-rays. [83]
