International Journal of Clinical Practice, 1997 SUMMARY Stress echocardiography has a number of advantages over exercise electrocardiography. It has superior sensitivity and specificity as it detects wall motion abnormalities, an earlier and more specific marker for myocardial ischaemia than ST segment depression. It can also localise ischaemia and identify hibernating myocardium.

Transoesophageal stress echocardiography [PDF]
European Heart Journal, 1997 Transoesophageal echocardiography has been performed in conjunction with pacing, dobutamine, or dipyridamole stress to detect stress-inducible ischaemia, and has proved to be a highly accurate diagnostic tool. Its advantages of improved image quality and high diagnostic accuracy have to be weighed against the disadvantages of semi-invasiveness and ...
