Using our original methodic of transthoracic Doppler assessment of coronary blood flow, we examined coronary resistance dynamics during physical stress tests in 12 patients with essential arterial hypertension (Group I), and 12 patients with effort angina (Group 2). In Group 1, physical exertion was...
