If physical examinations, chest radiography, and spirometry fail to diagnose dyspnea, other .iagnostic tests such as cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) will be utilized.4 The main and most important application of cardiopulmonary exercise test is to determine the main causes of restrained activity and dyspnea.5,6 Moreover, unexplained exertional dyspnea or fatigue is a generally encountered problem in clinical practice and can pose a significant diagnostic challenge to physicians because the pathophysiology causing the exercise intolerance is not good understood.7-9 Few researches have been conducted concerning the role of CPET in assessing unexplained dyspnea, but it has been proven that CPET in such cases can limit differential diagnosis and sometimes introduce a single system as the restraining factor.10-12 Researchers believe that CPET among those patients with unexplained dyspnea can provide important and useful information for doctors.10 Another study showed the conclusion that submaximal cardiopulmonary exercise test is really useful in determining pulmonary causes and deconditioning among patients with cardiac failures.13 To determine the best modality in order to have a definite diagnosis, we may utilize this test.	cache/bam-7556.pdf	txt/bam-7556.txt
