  • Helps determine heart function during periods of exertion.
  • Will involve monitoring your heart’s activity while you walk on a treadmill.
  • Helps evaluate for signs of coronary artery disease and other heart problems.
  • Similar to basic exercise stress testing, but also involves a radioactive tracer
  • Uses a special camera to create images of blood flow during exertion
  • Helps identify any areas of blockage in the circulatory system
  • Involves a small amount of radioactive tracer injected into the blood
  • The heart absorbs this tracer, and a special camera takes pictures of the heart
  • Images of the heart at rest and during exertion are compared
  • Positron emission tomography (PET) used to measure blood flow to the heart
  • Helps diagnose coronary artery disease
  • Noninvasive and painless screening method
  • Small, wearable device that monitors and records your heart’s rhythm
  • Checks for irregular heart rates that could indicate health conditions
  • Can be used alone or alongside other diagnostic evaluation

  • Typically worn for about 1 month to collect sufficient data
  • Patient will be advised on devices that can interfere with the monitor
  • Real-time monitoring of your heart rhythm and function
  • Provides early detection of potential heart health problems
  • Involves wearing sensors on your skin that transmit readings to a display monitor
  • Noninvasive methods for visualizing circulatory system structures

  • Highly safe screening option
  • Also known as a heart ultrasound
  • Noninvasive method to obtain detailed 2D or 3D imaging of the heart
  • Can detect heart defects or monitor efficacy of heart treatments
  • Evaluates how the heart functions during exertion or under stress
  • Combines ultrasound with physical or pharmaceutical stress to evaluate function
  • Noninvasive and painless screening option
  • Hallmark cardiac monitoring method
  • Uses 12 electrodes to monitor for dysrhythmias, evidence of heart attack, and more
  • Can evaluate pacemaker or ICD function
  • Allows your heart doctor to monitor heart function remotely
