😬💔 Angina pectoris is the term cardiologists use for chest pain. There are many causes of chest pain, but within cardiology, coronary artery disease is the most common of all.

👀 At this point, it's important to remember that not all chest pain originates from the heart. There are various causes—muscular, osteochondral, ligamentous, pulmonary, pleural, esophageal, gastric, vesicular, pancreatic, mediastinal, among others—that can produce chest pain or radiate to the chest.

How do we accurately diagnose angina pectoris?

The first and most important step in the consultation process is a cardiological clinical examination🩺 performed by an expert. If the pain has coronary characteristics, confirmation and assessment of severity can be done in various ways, from least to most invasive:

- Electrocardiogram or treadmill exercise test (also known as dynamic electrocardiogram).
- Stress echocardiogram or rest & stress cardiac SPECT or with medication.
- Multislice coronary computed tomography.
- Invasive coronary angiography.

It's important to consult with your cardiologist for a detailed clinical evaluation🩺 (this is the key to diagnosis), along with a resting 12-lead electrocardiogram, blood tests, and an echocardiogram with Doppler. All this information forms part of the necessary basic data to establish a diagnosis and indicate appropriate treatment💊.
