A method commonly used for localization of brain regions on positron emission tomographic (PET) images is direct visualization and designation of structure on the image itself. This technique, however, is limited to portions of the brain having sufficient differential radionuclide uptake to permit t

## Background: Earlier studies have suggested a modest accuracy of stress thallium 201 myocardial perfusion imaging (mpi) for the diagnosis of coronary artery disease (cad) in women. the accuracy of stress mpi with technetium 99m tetrofosmin has not been studied in women. the aim of this study was
