transthoracic echo?
Give this one a try later!
, normokinetic = normal contraction

akinetic = no contraction
What are the pros and cons of stress echocardiography?
Give this one a try later!
- takes echo images from before and after the heart is stressed to assess
myocardial perfusion by looking at changes in contraction at different
levels of myocardial oxygen demand
- 'stress' => exercise or dobutamine
can id territory that coronary artery disease is present in
suprasternal
