Stable Angina Diagnosis & Tests
Your health care provider may note changes in your blood pressure. A heart murmur or arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats) may occur.
An exercise tolerance test (stress test or treadmill test) may show ECG changes associated with the chest pain, which confirm the diagnosis of coronary artery disease in patients with angina.
A stress echocardiogram may show that the heart's ability to squeeze (contract) is altered.
In some circumstances, your health care provider may request a heart scan or an coronary angiography to help assess the condition.
