28 Μαΐ 2024 · During a typical nuclear stress test, you are exposed to 11 millisieverts of radiation. This is about three times the dose of radiation that you get just from going about your normal, day-to-day life for one year.
19 Μαρ 2013 · Several different radioactive medicines can be used to generate the images for a nuclear stress test. One, called thallium 201, exposes patients to an especially high amount of radiation.

24 Απρ 2023 · While stress testing can be performed in a variety of ways, more commonly performed and widely available are exercise electrocardiography (EKG) and exercise or pharmacological stress testing along with imaging such as echocardiography or radionuclide myocardial perfusion imaging (rMPI).
18 Δεκ 2018 · Cardiac nuclear myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) has demonstrated excellent value for diagnosis and risk stratification of patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease. 1 The mainstay of these tests is the cardiovascular stress test with MPI using single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT).
