Myocardial perfusion imaging in the elderly: a review
Nuclear Medicine Communications, 2006Coronary artery disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the elderly population. As a result of ageing of the population and better medical, interventional and surgical treatment of patients with coronary artery disease, more and more elderly patients are referred to the cardiology department for diagnostic work-up.

Planar Myocardial Perfusion Imaging Acquisition and Processing Protocols
2003In view of the variety of gamma camera systems that are commercially available, it is difficult to incorporate every acquisition/acquisition parameter adequately into a few simple charts. Single-headed systems have different acquisition parameters than triple-headed systems, and both are different from dual-headed systems.

Stress-first Myocardial Perfusion Imaging
Cardiology Clinics, 2016Stress-first approaches to myocardial perfusion imaging provide diagnostically and prognostically accurate perfusion data equivalent to a full rest-stress study, save time in the imaging laboratory, and reduce the radiation exposure to patients and laboratory staff.

Pharmacologic Stress Myocardial Perfusion Imaging
Southern Medical Journal, 2007Pharmacologic stress agents (dipyridamole, adenosine and dobutamine) allow virtually all patients to be safely assessed for ischemic heart disease. These agents have mild but significant side effects, mandating a thorough knowledge of indications, contraindications, side effects and management before their use.

Myocardial Perfusion Imaging with PET
2007Over the past two decades, the experimental and clinical use of positron emission tomography (PET) has significantly contributed to the knowledge of cardiac physiology and metabolism. Positron tomography has emerged from the experimental arena and currently plays an important role in clinical cardiology.

CT Myocardial Perfusion Imaging
2019Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a condition in which blood supply to the heart muscle (myocardium) is reduced as a result of plaque formation within one or more coronary arteries. CAD is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in the world.

Myocardial perfusion imaging by SPECT
1996Over the last decade, substantial advancements in the field of myocardial perfusion scintigraphy have markedly improved the diagnosis and subsequent evaluation of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). These improvements have mainly originated from the transition of planar imaging to single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). In addition,

Myocardial perfusion imaging in pediatric cardiology
Annals of Nuclear Medicine, 2004Myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) is an important procedure in pediatric cardiology in terms of evaluating myocardial ischemia, infarction and damage associated with various congenital or acquired heart diseases, such as Kawasaki disease, anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery and complete transposition of the great ...
