Now, if it's a fixed obstruction, would you have an abnormal resting study (before cold stress)?

I find it interesting that it is suggested that you check these 1 minutes apart. Can someone furnish a reference for this vs the timing that I suggested. I would love to decrease the time for this study if it still produces a good result.
