Treadmill Stress Test – Heart Function Test Under Exercise

A Treadmill Test (TMT), also known as a Treadmill Stress Test, is a non-invasive cardiac test used to evaluate how your heart performs during physical activity. It helps detect reduced blood flow, heart blockage, and abnormal heart rhythms when the heart is under stress.

During the test, you walk on a treadmill while your heart rate, ECG, blood pressure, and breathing are continuously monitored.
