Stress echocardiography

Information, Symptoms, Treatments and Resources

What is Stress echocardiography?

Stress echocardiography is a test that helps diagnose heart disease with the help of ultrasound images. (A more routine exercise stress test does not use imaging.) Following exercise or other stress to the heart, the images reveal parts of the heart that may not be receiving enough blood or oxygen because of blocked arteries.

This test may be used to monitor your progress if you already have a known heart condition.

Alternative Names:

Echocardiography stress test; Stress test - echocardiography
