Immediate upright post-treadmill exercise echocardiographic imaging.
Using standard treadmill exercise techniques, it has been shown that postexercise echocardiographic imaging can be performed safely and effectively while a patient is still standing on the treadmill. Furthermore, upright imaging can be initiated earlier and completed at a higher heart rate than standard supine imaging. Patients who can ambulate but with decreased agility and maneuverability and who would otherwise have been denied treadmill tests may be eligible for upright poststress imaging.
