title: [Clinical usefulness of the dobutamine test in the diagnosis of coronary disease].
abstract: In the diagnostics of the coronary artery disease different exercise tests are well-known to be important. On the basis of the increasing number of publications of the eighties the authors examined the applicability of dobutamin stress test in 89 patients, whose anamnesis did not contain any justification of coronary artery disease. All patients were examined by coronarography. The authors compared the results of different tests with the results of coronarography. They found the sensitivity of dobutamin stress test significantly higher and its specificity--although not significantly--lower, than the dynamic treadmill tests, however the combination of the two methods resulted in very good sensitivity and acceptable specificity.
