What to Expect During a Treadmill Test (TMT)?
During the test, you will be connected to equipment that monitors your heart. You will either walk slowly in place on a treadmill or ride a stationary bicycle.

You might also be asked to breathe into a tube for a few minutes. You can stop the test at any time if necessary. Afterward, you will sit or lie down while your heart and blood pressure are checked.
