Sensitivity and specificity of various noninvasive tests to diagnose the presence of coronary heart disease (CHD)

	Diagnosis of coronary artery disease
	Sensitivity (%)	Specificity (%)
Exercise ECG	45 to 61	70 to 90
Exercise stress echocardiography	70 to 85	77 to 89
Exercise stress SPECT	73 to 92	63 to 88
Pharmacologic stress echocardiography	72 to 90	79 to 95
Pharmacologic stress SPECT	88 to 91	75 to 90
Coronary CTA	93 to 99	64 to 90

CTA: computed tomography angiogram; ECG: electrocardiogram; SPECT: single photon emission computed tomography.
