Multimodality Imaging in Ischemic Cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Current Cardiovascular Imaging Reports, 2014 Cardiac multimodality (hybrid) imaging can be obtained from a variety of techniques, such as nuclear medicine with single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and positron emission tomography (PET), or radiology with multislice computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance (MR) and echography.
