Since it was introduced less than 100 years ago, analysis of the
circulatory response to exercise as a measure of cardiac function
has undergone remarkable development. Most recently this approach
has incorporated the burgeoning technology of the last half of the
20th century to meet the physiological and diagnostic needs of
scientist and clinicians. The ease of administration, economy and
abundant data that characterize exercise testing for its relative
staying power as the most frequently utilized noninvasive method of
cardiovascular evaluation. The basic modalities of exercise
electrocardiography of treadmill and bicycle have been extended by
noninvasive cardiac imaging techniques, including scintigraphy and
echocardiography, that have provided new insights in myocardial
function during exertion and pharmacologic stress. At the same
time, traditional exercise electrocardiography has also been
refined by innovations that have broadened its applications.
Exercise Testing: Current Concepts and Recent Advances affords the
reader a state-of-the-art presentation of the diverse and expanding
methods of exercise testing and their roles in patient management.
The contributors to this volume include individuals who have made
seminal contributions to the field during the last several decades.
Indeed, it is legitimate to designate this group as a Who's Who of
Exercise Testing'. It is our hope that this book will enhance the
reader's understanding of contemporary methods of exercise testing,
as well as provide a glimpse into future directions of this
science, that this knowledge is applied to optimal diagnosis and
management of our patients.
