Cardiac Stress Testing

This is an exercise evaluation performed at varying levels of intensity on a treadmill or a bicycle. It monitors your heart rate, blood pressure and cardiac electrical response to warm-up, peak exercise and during rest or recovery.

Echocardiography

Also known as a cardiac ultrasound or cardiac echo. This test uses sound waves (ultrasound) to create a real-time movie of the heart beating. It’s a painless test that uses an ultrasound probe held against the chest wall to obtain the movies. Ultrasound gel (clear jelly, water-based) is applied to the chest to improve image quality.

 

Vascular Ultrasound

This test uses sound waves or ultrasound to image large to medium sized blood vessels. It can detect blockages or cholesterol build-up in arteries that feed the brain i.e. carotid arteries or abdomen/legs i.e. abdominal aorta.

Cardiopulmonary exercise testing

Often abbreviated as CPET, CPX, or CPEX, Cardiopulmonary exercise testing is now the 'gold standard' objective tool for the evaluation of cardiopulmonary function and fitness.

Electrocardiogram (EKG or ECG)

An electrocardiogram (EKG or ECG) is a test that checks for problems with the electrical activity of your heart. An EKG shows the heart's electrical activity as line tracings on paper. The spikes and dips in the tracings are called waves.
