Some of the most common tests for heart disease include: electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) and stress tests. Doctors may also perform additional tests such as MRIs, CT heart scans, or chest x-rays to get more an in-depth evaluation. If you’re worried that you might have heart disease, bring it up to your doctor at your next appointment and schedule a time to test for it.
