- electrocardiogram (ECG);
- Holter ECG monitoring;
- echocardiography (ultrasound of the hear);
- heart examination under stress (stress echocardiography).
Cardiac examination, if necessary, may include lab tests (blood and urine tests, troponin test). In addition, a cardiologist can refer a patient for consultation by other specialists. So, a neurologist should be consulted if there is suspicion of intercostal neuralgia, and a psychotherapist should be consulted for psychosomatic causes of heartache.
