[en] The prognostic value of stress electrocardiogram and thallium-201 stress myocardial scintigraphy was analyzed in 224 patients 3 months after a myocardial infarction; both techniques allowed an adequate stratification based on the presence of ST depression or multivessel disease. Combining stress electrocardiogram and stress myocardial scintigraphy data improved the prognostic ability, particularly in patients who associated multivessel disease and ST depression.
