Types of Stress Test (TMT)
The standard treadmill exercise stress test gradually increases speed and incline while ECG and blood pressure are monitored, while a pharmacological stress test uses medication to simulate exercise for patients unable to walk on a treadmill. Stress echocardiography and nuclear stress tests add imaging to assess heart muscle blood flow more precisely when standard ECG findings are inconclusive.
