The pain of myocardial ischaemia usually is typical although it can defy diagnosis in some patients despite the most sophisticated investigations. Diagnosis depends on the careful taking of a history with due consideration to the patient's sex, age and family history. The presumptive diagnosis could be supported by a range of investigations but some are invasive and potentially dangerous.
