Intermountain Healthcare answered:
Alternatives to cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) depend on your situation and the information the doctor needs. They include other heart stress imaging tests, such as:
- cardiac stress echocardiogram (heart ultrasound)
- stress electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG)
- nuclear stress test
- cardiac catheterization/angiogram
- computed tomography (CT) scan of the blood vessels that feed the heart
