A Monte Carlo study of arms effect in myocardial perfusion of normal and abnormal cases utilizing STL heart shape

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2018
Arms influence in myocardial perfusion single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging has been studied for the last two decades. These studies suggested that arms positioning next to the patient would not show cardiac abnormalities or ...

Validation of OSEM algorithm for attenuation correction in cardiac SPECT studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Photon attenuation is believed to be one of the major causes of artefacts in cardiac SPECT studies and therefore should be corrected to improve the specificity of cardiac SPECT imaging for the detection of coronary artery disease.

Dobutamine stress myocardial perfusion imaging

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2000
In patients with limited exercise capacity and (relative) contraindications to direct vasodilators such as dipyridamole or adenosine, dobutamine stress nuclear myocardial perfusion imaging (DSMPI) represents an alternative, exercise-independent stress modality for the detection of coronary artery disease (CAD).

Abnormal Myocardial Perfusion Imaging After Percutaneous

open access: yes, 2009
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stent implantation has been widely used in treating patients with coronary artery disease. Persistent post-PCI angina is a common symptom.

Myocardial Perfusion Imaging With Contrast Ultrasound

open access: yes, 2010
This report reviews the development and clinical application of myocardial perfusion imaging with myocardial contrast echocardiography (MCE). This includes the development of microbubble formulations that permit the detection of left ventricular contrast

Myocardial Perfusion by Coronary Computed Tomography in the Evaluation of Myocardial Ischemia: Simultaneous Stress Protocol with SPECT

open access: yesArquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia
Background: Functional assessment to rule out myocardial ischemia using coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is extremely important and data on the Brazilian population are still limited.

The predictive value of Cardiodynamicsgram in myocardial perfusion abnormalities.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Myocardial perfusion abnormalities are the first sign of the ischemic cascade in the development of coronary artery disease (CAD). Thus, the early detection of myocardial perfusion abnormalities is significant for the prevention of CAD. Recently, a novel

99mTc-MIBI myocardial perfusion imaging in myocarditis

open access: yes, 2003
Myocardial perfusion imaging with technetium-99m-labelled methoxyisobutyl isonitrile single photon emission computed tomography (99mTc-MIBI SPECT) has proven to be an important clinical procedure in assessing the severity of myocardial ischaemia.
