pubmed:abstractText |
Absence of cardiac symptoms is not a valid indicator of low cardiac risk in the sedentary patient who is being considered for vascular surgery. Invasive methods of cardiac assessment in such patients are associated with risk and are expensive. This study was carried out to evaluate the utility of pre-operative cardiac risk stratification with dipyridamole myocardial scintigraphy (DMS), in patients to undergo carotid artery surgery.
