The association of rate pressure product (RPP) and myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) findings: A preliminary study [PDF]
Introduction: The product of heart rate and systolic blood pressure, termed as rate-pressure product (RPP), is a very reliable indicator of myocardial oxygen demand and is widely used clinically.

Alterations in T1 of normal and reperfused infarcted myocardium after Gd-BOPTA versus GD-DTPA on inversion recovery EPI. [PDF]
This study tested whether Gd-BOPTA/Dimeg or Gd-DTPA exerts greater relaxation enhancement for blood and reperfused infarcted myocardium. Relaxivity of Gd-BOPTA is increased by weak binding to serum albumin.

Dynamic Myocardial CT Perfusion Imaging
The few patient studies focusing on dynamic CTMPI for myocardial ischemia detection show promising results. Absolute quantification of perfusion parameters offers great potential, not only in the diagnosis of myocardial ischemia but potentially also in the detection of early signs of reduced myocardial blood flow as well as the diagnosis of ...
