Why is a Stress Test Important For Us?
A Stress Test is a crucial diagnostic tool that helps evaluate how well your heart functions under physical exertion. At MyoCardia Diagnostics Center, we use stress testing to detect potential heart conditions, assess cardiovascular health, and guide treatment plans.
Detects Hidden Heart Problems
A Stress Test helps identify underlying heart conditions that may not be noticeable when your heart is at rest. It can reveal:
✔ Blocked arteries (coronary artery disease)
✔ Irregular heartbeats (arrhythmias)
✔ Poor blood flow to the heart (ischemia)
Assesses Heart Performance & Fitness
This test helps determine how well your heart, lungs, and blood vessels respond to exercise. It is useful for:
✅ Checking your heart’s ability to handle physical activity
✅ Monitoring heart health in people with a history of heart disease
✅ Evaluating fitness levels before starting an exercise program
Helps Prevent Heart Attacks & Stroke
By detecting early signs of heart disease, a stress test allows doctors to take preventive measures, reducing the risk of heart attacks and strokes.
