Gatekeeper for coronary angiography [PDF]
We would like to compliment Hoilund-Carlsen and colleagues on their well-designed study on myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) as gatekeeper for coronary angiography.1 However, we have some doubts with regard to the use of MPS in a not-low-risk population. In this selection of patients scheduled for coronary angiography, obstructive coronary artery
