Explanation

A "nondiagnostic adenosine stress test" refers to a specific type of heart test that did not provide clear or definitive results. The test uses a drug called adenosine to make the heart work harder, similar to when you exercise, and then images are taken to see how well the heart is functioning. If the test is "nondiagnostic", it means that the images did not clearly show whether there is a problem with the heart or not.
