I want to get the most advanced heart check.

Hello, as mentioned in the title I am here to do the deepest heart check possible.
I already plan for these :
- Electrocardiography
- Heart Stress Test (with the bike)
- Doing a blood work at the cardiologist to check all the enzymes linked to my heart ( I know troponin, if you have other things to ask on this blood work, please share it.)
And I guess there is many other things I could do such as radiography, etc.. I am really looking to get a complete panel of my heart, and then know if there is any problem on my heart.
If anyone can add lot of things to add to this cardiologist panel that I will do 1-2 times a year, I would be really happy, thanks in advance.

A good cardiologist will do EKG, echocardiogram, nuc stress test and blood work like stated above. If something is off, then angiogram.
How does the stress test with the bike work - does that measure lung efficiency too? I had an echocardiogram about 5 years ago now - bit freaky seeing your heart beating on a screen infront of you Lol
I've never done bike, always treadmill. They shoot me with the nuc and take images then go on treadmill and images after treadmill.
So do the images give them an idea of how well your heart is performing under stress?
Correct and blockages. echo shows how the heart looks, injection fraction etc.
Are you experiencing any bad symptoms or signs of heart problems or just because you want to do it in general?
Jonathan22I just want to do a complete panel of my heart at every cruise (because I am spamming 30 weeks blast, and then 10 weeks cruise).
