Les examens non invasifs ne sont pas utiles pour des patients qui subissent une intervention chirurgicale non cardiaque à faible risque (par exemple, l'ablation de la cataracte). Ces examens ne changent pas la prise en charge clinique du patient ni l'évolution de son état de santé.

Troubles médicaux: évaluation préopératoire (pré-op), chirurgie non cardiaque à faible risque

Examens médicaux: Imagerie cardiaque à l'effort, examen nucléaire à l'effort, MIBI à l'effort, échocardiographie à l'effort (écho), tomodensitogramme angiographie coronaire
