In patients with<unk>  stable angina, the extent and severity of<unk>  artery disease (CAD) and left ventricular dysfunction remain the strongest predictors of long-term prognosis. Hence, patients identified as high<unk>  for underlying CAD based on non-invasive testing, patients with CCS class III or IV angina and patients who are non-responsive to medical therapy,<unk><unk>  would be a preferred modality for<unk>  stratification.<unk><unk>  is primarily used to assess the number and location of stenoses, of which triple-vessel disease and proximal stenoses involving the left main and proximal LAD are associated with increased mortality. In patients with single-vessel disease,<unk><unk>  and myocardial perfusion imaging provide similar results in assessing the severity of<unk>  stenosis however, in patients with multi-vessel disease, nuclear imaging or echocardiography are more useful in evaluating the prognosis.
