Special Considerations
The main benefit is that a stress echocardiogram is a very effective, noninvasive test that can help determine whether you have heart disease and if so, how serious the problem is. Early diagnosis and monitoring of heart disease allows treatment to begin early.
For patients who have already been diagnosed with heart disease, this test can show whether your heart's function and blood flow are stable, or if blood flow to additional areas of your heart has become blocked.
