Myocardial perfusion imaging with PET [PDF]
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.

Spatio-Temporal Modelling of Perfusion Cardiovascular MRI [PDF]
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]
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 ...

Image Registration in Myocardial Perfusion MRI [PDF]
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 ...

Myocardial damage size assessment in the zone of infarction for indicating rescue percutaneous coronary intervention [PDF]
Background. The most important predictors of subsequent patients outcome after acute myocardial infarction (AIM) are infarct size, left ventricular ejection fraction, left ventricular volumes and presence and extent of residual myocardial ischemia.
