This is a tough one. I bet the test is super important, but the code? Who even knows that off the top of their head? Guess I'll just close my eyes and pick one. *fingers crossed*

This test sounds like it could be really useful for diagnosing ischemic chest pain. But what's the code for it? Gotta get that right on the exam!
