Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Echocardiography is a noninvasive study that uses sound waves to create images of the heart structure and can be used to diagnose mitral valve stenosis or other valvular disorders.

Answer: B 
 An Electrocardiograph or ECG is a noninvasive test that records the electrical activity of the heart and can be used to detect abnormal heart rhythms, such as atrial fibrillation, ventricular fibrillation, bradycardia, and heart block.

Answer: C 
 Perfusion refers to the flow of blood through the vessels and organs of the body and can be used to assess the blood flow to the heart muscle during stress or exercise tests.

Answer: J 
 Ejection fraction is a measurement of how much blood the heart pumps out with each heartbeat and can be used to assess the effectiveness of the heart's pumping action.
