THE EVOLUTION OF STRESS ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY
Cardiology Clinics, 1999The feasibility of using echocardiography to identify stress induced wall motion abnormalities was first demonstrated with M-mode recordings. The practical use of such a test had to await the development of 2-dimensional echocardiography whereby more wall segments could be analyzed.

Diastolic Stress Echocardiography
2009The increase of left ventricular (LV) filling pressure (LVFP) is the most important determinant of dyspnea (shortness of breath) and even of prognosis in patients with chronic heart failure, independent on the values of LV ejection fraction (EF) [1, 2].

Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography, 1998
Cardiovascular stress testing remains the mainstay of provocative evaluation for patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease. Stress echocardiography has become a valuable means of cardiovascular stress testing. It plays a crucial role in the initial detection of coronary disease, in determining prognosis, and in therapeutic decision ...

Evolution of Stress Echocardiography
Echocardiography, 1992Interest in stress echocardiography began with M-mode recordings of the left ventricle. Kraunz and Kennedyz0 looked at left ventricular wall motion at rest and with exercise in 1970. This study involved normally contracting chambers. Shortly thereafter investigators began noticing that abnormal wall motion could be detected with M-mode echocardiography.

Adenosine echocardiography ? an alternative to dynamic stress echocardiography
The International Journal of Cardiac Imaging, 1993Dynamic exercise echocardiography is sensitive and specific in detection and evaluation of coronary artery disease. Frequently, however, patients cannot achieve maximum exercise because of various factors. The aims of this study were to compare usefulness of adenosine infusion and dynamic exercise to induce myocardial ischemia detected with 2-D ...

Bicycle Stress Echocardiography
Echocardiography, 1992Bicycle stress echocardiography involves the recording and interpretation of two‐dimensional echocardiographic information before, during, and after bicycle exercise. The exercise test can be performed in the supine or upright posture. While there are important physiological differences between these two positions, they appear to provide similar ...

Stress Echocardiography: a Historical Perspective
The American Journal of Medicine, 1994Stress echocardiography is a popular cardiac imaging technique that provides similar diagnostic and prognostic accuracy as radionuclide stress perfusion imaging. Similar accuracy, however, should not be synonymous with being "clinically interchangeable." Because of economic cost, environmental impact, and individual biohazard exposure, a nuclear ...
