TMT is a test to evaluate Heart’s response to stress. It involves a person walking over a Treadmill with ECG electrodes attached which in turn are connected to a computer. The machine moves as per pre-arranged protocol, called Stages. Heart is studied during rest, during stress (walking) & during recovery. BP, Pulse & ECG are monitored. This test is basically to detect Coronary artery Disease, Risk of Heart Attack or certain Arrhythmias precipitated by stress.
