BE CAREFUL! Many routinely ordered tests can be completely useless or, worse, dangerous to your health. In this video, Dr. Cotta Jr., a cardiologist with over 25 years of experience, reveals which tests you should avoid in your annual checkup and why they can cause unnecessary panic and enormous expenses. Many patients arrive at the office terrified by abnormal test results that should never have been ordered. We will discuss everything from the famous D-dimer and tumor markers to the excessive radiation from an angiotomography performed without a clear indication. You will understand what the "cascade of tests" is and how a poorly indicated checkup can lead to procedures that put your life at risk. Protect your health and your wallet by understanding the difference between essential tests and "trendy" tests that do not reduce cardiovascular mortality.
