Imaging Techniques for the Assessment of Myocardial Perfusion
Journal of Interdisciplinary Medicine, 2016 One of the most significant causes of heart failure is coronary heart disease and subsequent left ventricular dysfunction. The prognosis and perioperative mortality are influenced by left ventricular function, which is also an important predictor marker ...

Myocardial perfusion imaging with PET [PDF]
Imaging in Medicine, 2013 PET-myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) allows accurate measurement of myocardial perfusion, absolute myocardial blood flow and function at stress and rest in a single study session performed in approximately 30 min. Various PET tracers are available for MPI, and rubidium-82 or nitrogen-13-ammonia is most commonly used.

Image Registration in Myocardial Perfusion MRI [PDF]
2005 IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology 27th Annual Conference, 2005 In clinical first-pass myocardial perfusion studies, physiological and patient motions are inevitable. Such motions impair the sensitivity and reliability in assessing myocardial perfusion abnormalities. The current study aims to correct the misregistration of myocardium during first-pass perfusion imaging by using a normalized mutual information ...

Spatio-Temporal Modelling of Perfusion Cardiovascular MRI [PDF]
, 2010 Myocardial perfusion MRI provides valuable insight into how coronary artery and microvascular diseases affect myocardial tissue. Stenosis in a coronary vessel leads to reduced maximum blood flow (MBF), but collaterals may secure the blood supply of the ...

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 ...
