Hi, Dr. Kama Ganayagam. What's a stress echo? So there are lots of different types of stress echoes available. The main idea of it is to try and get your heart working harder and faster and then check that when your heart is working harder and faster that the blood supply is adequate to all the different parts of the heart. And really that's the idea of the test. We want to check the arteries to the heart muscle are working well. Thank you.
