What do heart tests tell us?

Dr. Sanjay Gupta

Generally the ECG or ECHO does not tell you about the blood vessels until when the blood vessels are so critically narrowed that the heart muscle is actually suffocating. So we need different tests when we are evaluating the heart arteries. These are therefore not looking for coronary disease but instead ischemia heart disease.
