Stress Echocardiogram (Exercise & Dobutamine)

A Stress Echocardiogram is a cardiac procedure that is used to visualize the heart muscle under stress. The procedure is usually used to diagnose or rule out heart disease, and may be used in the evaluation of patients who are experiencing chest pain, shortness of breath, or other symptoms suggestive of heart problems. The test is typically performed after an individual has completed a physical examination and has been ruled out as having a heart condition that is causing their symptoms. During the test, the patient is asked to exercise on a treadmill to increase blood flow to the heart. The exercise is then followed by a Dobutamine injection, which allows for more detailed images of the heart muscle. The results of a stress echocardiogram can help in the diagnosis and treatment of heart disease.
