Dynamic CT myocardial perfusion imaging
Cardiac CT offers several approaches to establish the hemodynamic severity of coronary artery obstructions. Dynamic myocardial perfusion CT (MPICT) is based on serial CT imaging to measure the inflow of contrast medium into the myocardium and calculate absolute measures of myocardial perfusion. This review describes the MPICT acquisition protocol, post-

Myocardial Perfusion Imaging in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (hcm) is a genetic disease with an autosomal pattern of inheritance, characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy in the absence of another cause of increased cardiac mass.

Perfusion Computed Tomography for the Assessment of Myocardial Viability — a Case Series
Myocardial viability plays an important role in preventing the development of left ventricular remodeling following an acute myocardial infarction. A preserved viability in the infarcted area has been demonstrated to be associated with a lower amplitude ...
