Benefits
- Allows imaging during intermediate stages to
identify ischemic threshold1
- Allows imaging to be performed at peak-exercise, avoiding the rapid reduction
in heart rate that occurs when patients are transferred from exercise treadmills
to bed1,2,3
- The ONLY accurate method for exercise Doppler
studies by providing steady-state circulatory physiology3,4,5,6,7
- Exercise rate can be increased or decreased
at the examiners demand, allowing greater examination flexibility and increasing
diagnostic yield1,2
- Allows adequate time
for patient positioning and avoids need for dangerous post-exercise transfers1,2,3
- Accommodates bariatric patient through its unbeatable weight capacity of
1250 lbs guaranteed by our UL and FDA listing
- For valve disease, provides
the safest method of stress assessment; e.g. in aortic stenosis,
where treadmill exercise is relatively contraindicated4
- Symptoms
and ischemia induced at lower heart rates using supine ergometry1,2
- Can
diagnose stress-induced outflow tract obstruction (seen in approx.
20% cases) and other rare causes of
chest pain, e.g. Takotsubo cardiomyopathy7
- Optimal patient imaging position can be done
carefully at the start of the examination1,2,3
