Please help me...I do not understand this. My coding weakness is cardiology:(

Indication for Examination: Abnormal EKG

Final Impression: Fixed inferior wall defects that may be suggestive of scar or artifact with perhaps minimal peri-infarct ischemia toward the posterobasal wall and basal anteroapical wall. There is a possibility of breast attenuation artifact that cannot be completely excluded otherwise. The ejection fraction post stress is found to be at 56%.

Diagnosis code (s):
 
stress test

Sounds like I would continue to use the abnormal EKG 794.31 and abnormal stress test 794.39. There are too many possible, and may be's to be a definitive diagnosis. Anyone else?
