Can a stress echocardiogram show if your coronory heart disease has gotten worse help....as was diagnosed 60% mid lad in january 2013.

Stress echo: Stress echo may show that there is an area of the heart that is affected by an impaired circulation from a CAD and it maybe a hint that lhc or stress test is needed for evaluation of the coronary arteries.

No; Only very Adv Ds: Stress tests, all methods, are incapable of detecting arterial disease; the visible arteries do not control blood flow. Blood flow to all tissues, body wide, is controlled 24/7 by the arterioles; nozzles, which constantly adjust size under brain+local feedback control to determine capillary flow. Narrowings/stenoses in the heart arteries must be severe before overpowering arteriole compensation.
