Over the past two decades, there has been an increased realization that systolic myocardial dysfunction, outside of the setting of acute ischemia, does not necessarily imply irreversible myocardial injury. Echocardiographic techniques, particularly dobutamine stress echocardiography, have emerged as important diagnostic modalities that can identify residual viable myocardium in patients following acute myocardial infarction and in those with suspected myocardial hibernation. Dobutamine echocardiography can also help risk stratify patients with coronary artery disease and depressed ventricular function and identify patients who would benefit best from revascularization procedures.
