Stress echo cardiography is a specialized diagnostic procedure that combines cardiac ultrasound imaging with physical exercise or pharmacological stress, in order to assess myocardial perfusion and function under conditions of physiological demand.
It is primarily indicated in the investigation of coronary artery disease and myocardial ischemia, as well as in the evaluation of valvular heart disease and cardiomyopathies, offering high diagnostic accuracy without the use of ionizing radiation.
Throughout the procedure, continuous medical supervision is maintained, including electrocardiographic monitoring, blood pressure assessment, and symptom evaluation, ensuring that the examination remains safe and controlled for the patient.
