catherization

Posted By cdm on April 03, 1999 at 09:37:29:







during an exam the docter said he saw a " scar " on  the ekg. A thalium
stress test showed some blockage and a heart catherization is scheduled.
my question is this- what is a scar, and what do you see on the stress
test that determines a blockage ? why cant the docters show you what
they are looking at? will the docters that are doing the catherization
tell us what they see before the test ? there are no other health
problems , blood pressure is good and cholesterol is ok.
thank you
