Walking stress evaluation
A treadmill test is a cardiac stress test where a patient walks or runs on a treadmill while their heart is monitored.

Doctors use it to diagnose coronary artery disease, assess exercise tolerance, or evaluate chest pain: The treadmill test showed no signs of blocked arteries.
