The purpose of the study is to evaluate a fully automated motion corrected first pass myocardial perfusion (FPMP) MRI with semi quantitative perfusion parameter maps in patients with suspected ischemic heart disease.
Background. Patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) have increased ventilatory equivalent for carbon dioxide (Ve/VCO 2 ), which may contribute to the symptom of exerciseinduced hyperpnea. We have developed a technique in which simultaneous blood volume single photon emission computed tomography
