lüll Stress echocardiography for the diagnosis and risk stratification of patients with suspected or known coronary artery disease: a critical appraisal Supported by the British Society of Echocardiography Senior R; Monaghan M; Becher H; Mayet J; Nihoyannopoulos PHeart 2005[Apr]; 91 (4): 427-36Stress echocardiography today has matured into a robust and reliable technique not only for the diagnosis of suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) but also for the accurate risk stratification of patients with suspected and established CAD. This is mainly because of rapid advances in image acquisition, digital display, and the development of harmonic and contrast imaging. Stress echocardiography today is also utilised in patients with heart failure both for assessing the cause of heart failure and determining the extent of hibernating myocardium. With advances in myocardial perfusion imaging, stress echocardiography now allows simultaneous assessment of myocardial function and perfusion. Tissue Doppler imaging allows quantitation of wall motion. Ready availability and reliability makes stress echocardiography a cost effective technique for the assessment of CAD.|Aged[MESH]|Coronary Disease/*diagnostic imaging[MESH]|Cost-Benefit Analysis[MESH]|Echocardiography, Stress/economics/*methods[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Myocardial Stunning/diagnostic imaging[MESH]|Prognosis[MESH]|Risk Assessment/methods[MESH]|Sex Factors[MESH] |
