Actually the controversy about stress tests is one of the things that is polarizing the medical community. Stress tests will not be gone; their niche will be in a different place. The Heart-Lung Institute's study should go a long way toward developing a protocol to determine who would benefit from EBCT and who would benefit from a treadmill. Many of my patients get a treadmill after their scan. The marketing approach should be that by the time a stress test is positive, it is time for some sort of invasive intervention. Ultrafast can detect disease long before one gets that far down the road.
