Physicians use cardiac nuclear medicine studies to help diagnose cardiac disease. The symptoms include: unexplained chest pain. chest pain brought on by exercise (called angina).

  • Wheeze.
  • Myocardial infarction (rare)
  • Arrhythmia (rare)
  • Radiation exposure (low radiation exposure)[11][12]
  • Non-ischemic chest pain, especially from dipyridamole and adenosine.

The most important behavioural risk factors of heart disease and stroke are unhealthy diet, physical inactivity, tobacco use and harmful use of alcohol. The effects of behavioural risk factors may show up in individuals as raised blood pressure, raised blood glucose, raised blood lipids, and overweight and obesity.
