Diagnostic accuracy of myocardial perfusion imaging with czt technology. Systemic review and meta-analysis of comparison with invasive coronary angiography [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: This study sought to summarize the evidence on stress myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) using cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) technology for the diagnosis of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). The CZT cameras are newly introduced, and

Noninvasive evaluation of ischaemic heart disease: myocardial perfusion imaging or stress echocardiography? [PDF]
Stress echocardiography and myocardial perfusion imaging are commonly used noninvasive imaging modalities for the evaluation of ischaemic heart disease. Both modalities have proved clinically useful in the entire spectrum of coronary artery disease. Both

Prediction of improvement of left ventricular function after revascularization: 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose single-photon emission computed tomography versus low-dose dobutamine echocardiography [PDF]
Aims: To compare assessment of myocardial flow and glucose metabolism by single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) with low-dose dobutamine echocardiography in predicting improvement in regional and global left ventricular function after ...

Is quantitative analysis superior to visual analysis of planar thallium 201 myocardial exercise scintigraphy in the evaluation of coronary artery disease? - Analysis of a prospective clinical study [PDF]
Quantitative analysis of myocardial exercise scintigraphy has been previously reported to be superior to visual image interpretation for detection of the presence and extent of coronary artery disease.
