Journal ArticleDOI

Selection of the optimal nonexercise stress for the evaluation of ischemic regional myocardial dysfunction and malperfusion. Comparison of dobutamine and adenosine using echocardiography and 99mTc-MIBI single photon emission computed tomography.

TL;DR: This prospective, direct comparison of alternative pharmacological stresses in patients without myocardial infarction shows vasodilator stress scintigraphy and dobutamine stress echocardiography and scintigy to share equivalent levels of sensitivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimal use of dobutamine stress for the detection and evaluation of coronary artery disease: combination with echocardiography or scintigraphy, or both?

TL;DR: Dobutamine stress echocardiography and perfusion scintigraphy have equivalent accuracy and in patients with left ventricular hypertrophy, echOCardiography appears to be the test of choice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Head-to-head comparison of exercise-redistribution-reinjection thallium single-photon emission computed tomography and low dose dobutamine echocardiography for prediction of reversibility of chronic left ventricular ischemic dysfunction

TL;DR: Quantitative exercise-redistribution-reinjection thallium SPECT and dobutamine echocardiography have comparable accuracy for prediction of reversibility of global left ventricular dysfunction after revascularization, however, dobutamines echOCardiography has greater specificity thanThallium imaging for Prediction of functional recovery on a segmental basis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prognostic value of myocardial ischemia and viability in patients with chronic left ventricular ischemic dysfunction.

TL;DR: Subgroup analyses indicated that among patients with 1- or 2-vessel disease, only those with ischemic or viable myocardium improved survival after revascularization, whereas in patients with 3-vessels or left main diseases, revascularized always improved survival, albeit more in the presence of ischemia or viableMyocardium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Contribution of left ventricular diastolic function to exercise capacity in normal subjects.

TL;DR: To test the hypothesis that differences in left ventricular diastolic performance contribute to the heterogeneity of VO2 max seen in healthy subjects, 57 normal sedentary volunteers and 9 endurance athletes were studied.
