We have decreased our volume and have tried to put off studies for the future. Given that Covid appears to be here for a while, we are scheduling all. The major changes involve the switching from exercise stress testing to pharmacological stress. For the ventilation/perfusion lung scan,we have eliminated the ventilation portion of the study and added a CT.
