## Background: Myocardial single photon emission computed tomography (spect) is an established noninvasive method for the assessment of the functional significance of coronary artery stenoses. intracoronary pressure measurements to determine fractional flow reserve (ffr) are increasingly performed
## Background: This study compared technetium 99m sestamibi/fluorine 18 fluorodeoxyglucose dual-isotope simultaneous acquisition (disa) with stress-reinjection thallium 201 single photon emission computed tomography (spect) with regard to their ability to detect myocardial viability. ## Methods an
Background. Positron emission tomography (PET) flow/metabolic mismatch is considered the nuclear medicine gold standard for the assessment of myocardial viability. The aim of this study was to investigate whether baseline/nitrate technetium 99m tetrofosmin single photon emission computed tomography
