[Diagnostic role of the pharmacologic stress with dipyridamole in reduced coronary reserve associated with CREST syndrome. Description of 2 cases].
Myocardial lesions in subjects with CREST syndrome, may be a manifestation of focal ischemic injury resulting from functional vascular disease. We describe the case of women with angina in CREST syndrome in which only the pharmacological stress with dipyridamole was able to demonstrate signs of ischemia.
