CARDIAC STRESS TESTING GUIDES SUBSEQUENT PATIENT MANAGEMENT: RATES OF CORONARY ANGIOGRAPHY BASED ON MYOCARDIAL PERFUSION IMAGING RESULTS

Cardiac stress testing is used to risk stratify patients for obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). However, its effect on subsequent patient management has been challenged, specifically its underutilization in guiding the decision to perform coronary angiography. Here, we analyzed rates of
