Can my regular doctor do the thallium stress test in his clinic?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: Thallium stress test are usually done in a hospital's nuclear medicine division of the radiology department. Your regular doctor or cardiologist may be present when the test is performed, especially to monitor the patient.
