Estonian term or phrase: SKG
Anybody know what this abbreviation means?
Context: "Patsient hospitaliseeritud pingutusstenokardiaga SKG teostamiseks", "SKH-l pärgarterid ilma hemodünaamiliselt oluliste stenoosideta". I found 'sfügmogramm > sphygmogram' as one possibility, but I'm not convinced. I was thinking of ECG, but that's usually EKG in Estonian. I'd be very grateful for any help.

SCG
Explanation:
If to transform this abbreviation into English - SKG = SCG, then it would mean Selective Coronary Angiography.
This is a treatment option for patients with unstabile stenocardia.
And next sentece refers to coronary arteries that have no markable stenosis.
Maybe it's possible to find out, weather any surgical procedures has been carried out.

agree  Jörgen Slet: most likely, SKG would be "selektiivne koronarograafia" in such case. Not a "treatment" option though, just a diagnostic procedure
