Quantification of Myocardial Perfusion: SPECT

open access: yesCurrent Cardiovascular Imaging Reports, 2012
Myocardial perfusion imaging with single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is important for the management of patients with suspected or known coronary artery disease. Stress myocardial perfusion images may be interpreted by visual inspection or by quantitative analysis.

CT Myocardial Perfusion Imaging

American Journal of Roentgenology, 2015
OBJECTIVE. CT myocardial perfusion imaging is rapidly becoming an important adjunct to coronary CT angiography for the anatomic and functional assessment of coronary artery disease with a single modality. Existing techniques for CT myocardial perfusion imaging include static techniques, which provide a snapshot of the myocardial blood pool, and dynamic

CAD of myocardial perfusion

SPIE Proceedings, 2007
Our purpose is in the automated evaluation of the physiological relevance of lesions in coronary angiograms. We aim to extract as much as possible quantitative information about the physiological condition of the heart from standard angiographic image sequences.

Contribution of myocardial contractility to myocardial perfusion

American Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 1979
Myocardial contractility in open-chest anesthetized (sodium pentobarbital) dogs was varied while ventricular pressure, coronary perfusion pressure, and coronary tone were held constant. Under those conditions, changes in regional blood flow should reflect changes only in intramyocardial compression related to the altered inotropic state.

Transmural myocardial perfusion

Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 1987
The predilection for subendocardial underperfusion and ischemia is great and must be considered in the management of any patient, especially if there is coronary artery disease or ventricular hypertrophy. Although the mechanisms of subendocardial ischemia remain to be fully defined, they are clearly associated with the transmural distribution of ...

Myocardial Perfusion Scintigraphy

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1980
Recent progress in diagnostic cardiology has centered around noninvasive methods 1,2 ; among these, echocardiography and myocardial scintigraphy have developed most rapidly. 3-6 Probably most prominent among the diverse scintigraphic methods is relative myocardial perfusion imaging.

Sinusoidal Myocardial Perfusion

Archives of Surgery, 1973
Seventeen dogs with evolving myocardial infarctions were treated with an internal mammary artery implant in the ischemic area of the heart. The survival rate in these dogs was significantly higher than that in a control group. Improved survival was probably due to flow of arterial blood from the implant into the ischemic region.

Regadenoson for myocardial perfusion scintigraphy

Expert Opinion on Medical Diagnostics, 2010
Stress myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) plays a major role in the detection of obstructive coronary artery disease and provides valuable diagnostic and prognostic information to guide clinical decision-making with regard to medical therapy and coronary revascularisation.

Myocardial perfusion scans.

Australian family physician, 2013
Coronary artery disease (CAD) remains a major health concern and the leading cause of death in Australia. Effective assessment of patients for possible CAD is a common problem in general practice. Non-invasive tests such as myocardial perfusion scans (MPS), exercise stress tests (ESTs) and stress echocardiography (using exercise or dobutamine as the ...
