Nuclear Stress Testing

Nuclear stress testing is a medical procedure used to assess how well your heart is functioning under stress. It combines exercise (like walking on a treadmill) with a small amount of radioactive material, which helps create images of the heart. These images show blood flow to the heart muscle during rest and activity, helping doctors identify areas with reduced blood supply. The test is non-invasive and provides valuable information to diagnose heart conditions, evaluate heart health, and guide treatment decisions.
