Stress echocardiography for risk assessment of diabetic patients
Neth Heart J.

Abstract
Coronary artery disease in patients suffering from diabetes mellitus will become an increasing problem in the future. Because diabetic patients benefit from treatment of symptomatic but also asymptomatic coronary artery disease, early diagnosis is warranted. The diagnostic techniques used to detect ischaemia, with a focus on stress echocardiography, are described.
Keywords: coronary artery disease; diabetes mellitus; risk assessment; silent ischaemia; stress echocardiography.
