The detection of ischemic myocardium is one of the major problems
in modern cardiology. Exercise has long been used to detect latent
myocardial ischemia by enhancing oxygen de mand, but different
cardiologists perform exercise tests in dif ferent ways. In
addition, many new techniques for detection of ischemia have been
developed in the past decade. For these reasons, a symposium on
this topic was organized in Dusseldorf under the auspices of the
European Society of Cardiology. The papers from this symposium
contained herein provide an up-to-date review of the different
forms of exercise tests, including their advantages and
disadvantages. Indications for study, recording techniques and
evaluation of exercise ECG, including computer techniques, are
extensively discussed. The results of exercise ECG are compared
with those of other me thods, especially coronary angiography.
Finally, the prognostic value of exercise ECG is assessed.
Additional chapters deal with complementary methods for detection
of myocardial ischemia, presenting techniques and results of
angiographic, isotopic and metabolic studies under exercise. The
symposium demonstrates that exercise testing has a primary role in
the detection of the disease, but there is still no unanimity on
how to carry it out. The results of some new approaches are
promising, even if their clinical relevance has not yet been fully
established. We hope that this book will be of interest to all our
colleagues taking care of cardiac patients. We wish especially to
thank Mr. M. Giicker and Mrs. B.
