What is it about?
This review performs a systematic review of the cost and effectiveness of non-invasive imaging tests in patients with symptoms suggesting they may have narrowing in the blood vessels that supply the heart muscle with oxygen. A better understanding of the cost-effectiveness of imaging tests in this common problem is critical in resource-limited healthcare systems.

Why is it important?
Understanding cost-effectiveness of tests and not such the effectiveness is important to spend money wisely in resource-limited healtchcare systems.
Perspectives
