What test shows blocked arteries in the heart?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The most accurate method to detect blocked arteries remains an invasive test called cardiac angiography, which requires a catheter to be threaded into heart vessels. But the signs of blocked arteries may also be seen on an ECG.

View allI'm really concerned because I've been experiencing some chest pain, tightness, a burning sensation, and even pain in my shoulder blade and hands. I've consulted two different doctors about this. The first doctor advised me to take Ab Flo capsules, but the second doctor was more cautious and said I should only take it if I have asthma. So the second doctor gave me Pantocid 40mg, but even after taking it for the past two days, I'm still not feeling any relief. Could you please guide me on what steps I should take next?
Probable diagnosis is GERD .Patient is advised tab pan d,orally once daily for 14 days ,syrup sucralfate 10ml thrice daily for 14 days.Also avoid spicy and hot items is advised to the patient.

I've been feeling this chest pain every day, and it's making me really uncomfortable. My ECG, echo, and TMT all came back normal, so Im a bit puzzled and worried. Why isn't anything showing up in the tests even though I'm still dealing with these symptoms? What could be going on with my chest?
Given that your ECG, echo, and TMT results are normal, and you continue to experience daily chest pain and discomfort, it's likely that your symptoms might not be heart-related. Other possible causes could include musculoskeletal issues like costochondritis or muscle strain, gastrointestinal problems such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), or anxiety-related symptoms. It would be beneficial to consult with a gastroenterologist to rule out any digestive issues and consider a musculoskeletal evaluation for potential muscular causes. Additionally, managing any underlying anxiety through therapy or relaxation techniques may help alleviate your symptoms. Please discuss these possibilities with your healthcare provider for a comprehensive evaluation and appropriate treatment plan.

My dad experienced some chest pain and his blood pressure was pretty high last night, so we decided to get an ECG done this morning. The results are in, and they mention something about a non-specific T wave abnormality. I'm trying to figure out what that means exactly. Any chance you could help us understand this a bit better?
