title: Two-dimensional stress echocardiography in coronary artery disease.
abstract: Stress echocardiography done using various methods has become a primary way to assess and quantify the extent of myocardial ischemia. Although it is highly versatile, its use remains patchy, and in many centers it is simply considered a research technique. This review discusses some of the advantages of stress echocardiography in relation to recent publications, and it points to some areas for future research.
