German term

EST Konk.

German to English Medical Medical (general) ECG/EKG terminology
VHFA 66/min, QRS komplex 110, links anterior Hemiblock, RSB, überdrehter LT, verzögerte R Progression bis V5, EST konk.

I'll be honest. This report has no punctuation and is wirttent mostly in abbreviation so my brain must be fried. :-) I am not sure what EST konk. is referring to. I was reading here: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Konkordanz_(Medizin) and thought maybe EST might have something to do with the ST segment, or STEMI, but I am pretty lost.

I think this is still a bit odd. I guess the source is saying that all of the findings of the ECG were confirmed or inline with those of the EBT?

I think EST is an abbreviation of the output of a medical diagnostic equipment Elektronenstrahlungtomographie. When compared with reference images and found to agree then the term konkordanz is written meaning in agreement (uebereinstimmt), perhaps abbreviated as konk.

In cardiac diagnosis, the ECG results may have to be supplemented by other diagnostic method such as stress test (treadmill), Echo, EBT or catheterization producing cardiac images which give more information about the condition of the heart if invasive or non-invasive treatment must be performed. Some useful references are:
1. Methods of cardiac diagnosis

2. Multi scan computerized tomography

4.Description of Electron Beam Tomography

In the asker's context I assume both ECG results and EBT results are evaluated in the report to confirm their agreement.
