Muscle not dead: The nuclear picture of the heart shows a hole in the muscle during exercise (stress) but not at rest. The muscle is alive and not permanently damaged. A bypass or stent could prevent the damage from becoming permanent.

Depends: Reversible ischemia means that the issues caused by lack of blood flow can be resolved by repairing the problem. The symptoms would depend on the location of the ischemia.
