Stress test

Cardiac stress tests such as Adenosine stress testing can tell your doctor if your heart is being adversely affected by your day-to-day stresses.

At Affinity Hear Care, stress tests are performed by our medical professionals in order to obtain an assessment of the amount of real-world stress (physical stress) your heart can handle before indicating evidence of irregular heart rhythm or ischemia (insufficient blood flow to the heart).

Nuclear Cardiology

Also referred to as a “nuclear stress test” or “stress cardiolite” study, nuclear cardiac imaging is used in conjunction with stress testing to improve the detection of coronary artery blockages.

This image allows the cardiologist to detect coronary artery blockages by looking for past and potential future heart muscle damage.
