What happens after a cardiac stress MRI?

After the cardiac stress MRI is finished:

• You’ll have an electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) test to check your heart
   rhythm. This is a painless test that takes 5 to 10 minutes.

• The arm cuff, finger clip, electrodes and IV line will be removed.

• You can usually go home the same day.

• You’ll get the results of your test in a follow-up appointment with your
   doctor.

Contact your doctor if you notice any of the following symptoms after the test:

• racing or fluttering heartbeat
• chest pain
• trouble breathing
