## Background: This study examined the independent and incremental prognostic value of exercise thallium single-photon emission computed tomographic imaging in 212 women who also underwent coronary angiography. ## Methods and results: The left ventricular ejection fraction was normal (65% +/- 15%
C a s e History. A 65-year-old woman underwent exercise single-photon emission computed tomographic sestamibi imaging because of recurrence of angina pectoffs 13 years after coronary artery bypass. Three years ago, she received an automatic implantable cardiac defibrillation device for life-threaten
