IMAGING TECHNIQUES: Myocardial perfusion imaging [PDF]
Heart, 2000 Non-invasive images of the myocardium that reflect myocardial perfusion can be obtained either by using conventional nuclear medicine radiopharmaceuticals and cameras or by positron emission tomography (PET). This review will focus on myocardial perfusion imaging using conventional approaches; a subsequent article in this series will focus on PET ...

Myocardial perfusion imaging with PET [PDF]
The International Journal of Cardiovascular Imaging, 2017 Noninvasive assessment of coronary artery disease remains a challenging task, with a large armamentarium of diagnostic modalities. Myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) is widely used for this purpose whereby cardiac positron emission tomography (PET) is considered the gold standard. Next to relative radiotracer distribution, PET allows for measurement of

Dynamic CT myocardial perfusion imaging [PDF]
European Journal of Radiology, 2016 Non-invasive cardiac imaging has rapidly evolved during the last decade due to advancements in CT based technologies. Coronary CT angiography has been shown to reliably assess coronary anatomy and detect high risk coronary artery disease. However, this technique is limited to anatomical assessment, thus non-invasive techniques for functional assessment

Cardiovascular risk factors and development of nomograms in an Italian cohort of patients with suspected coronary artery disease undergoing SPECT or PET stress myocardial perfusion imaging [PDF]
Frontiers in Nuclear MedicineIntroductionSingle-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and positron emission tomography (PET) are non-invasive nuclear medicine techniques that can identify areas of abnormal myocardial perfusion. We assessed the prevalence of cardiovascular risk

CT Attenuation correction and its impact on image quality of myocardial perfusion imaging in coronary artery disease: A systematic review [PDF]
Asia Oceania Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Biology, 2021 Myocardial perfusion imaging is a non-invasive procedure that plays an integral role in the diagnosis and management of coronary artery disease. With the routine use of computerised tomography attenuation correction (CTAC) in myocardial perfusion imaging

MR Myocardial Perfusion Imaging [PDF]
Radiology, 2013 Contrast material-enhanced myocardial perfusion imaging by using cardiac magnetic resonance (MR) imaging has, during the past decade, evolved into an accurate technique for diagnosing coronary artery disease, with excellent prognostic value. Advantages such as high spatial resolution; absence of ionizing radiation; and the ease of routine integration ...
