ECG, Treadmill Test

ECG (Electrocardiogram) and Treadmill Test (TMT) are diagnostic tools used to assess heart health and cardiac function, but they are different in their approach and purpose. Let's break them down:

ECG (Electrocardiogram): An ECG is a simple and non-invasive test that records the electrical activity of the heart. It helps detect heart conditions by measuring the timing and strength of electrical signals as they travel through the heart muscle.

Treadmill Test (TMT) or Stress Test: A Treadmill Test (TMT), also known as a stress test, assesses how the heart responds to physical activity. The test is done while walking or running on a treadmill, which gradually increases in speed and incline.
