Journal ArticleDOI

Diagnostic accuracy of rest/stress ECG-gated Rb-82 myocardial perfusion PET: Comparison with ECG-gated Tc-99m sestamibi SPECT

TL;DR: In a large population of matched pharmacologic stress patients, myocardial perfusion PET was superior to SPECT in image quality, interpretive certainty, and diagnostic accuracy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multicenter Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy of Correction for Photon Attenuation and Scatter in SPECT Myocardial Perfusion Imaging

TL;DR: Significant improvements in the normalcy rate were noted without a decline in overall sensitivity but with a reduction in detection of extensive coronary disease, and regional differences were also noted.
Journal ArticleDOI

The value and practice of attenuation correction for myocardial perfusion SPECT imaging: a joint position statement from the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology and the Society of Nuclear Medicine.

TL;DR: The role of attenuation correction in single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) myocardial perfusion imaging is discussed in this paper, where the authors provide guidelines for its clinical use and provide a basis for the evaluation of published validation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Independent and incremental prognostic value of left ventricular ejection fraction determined by stress gated rubidium 82 PET imaging in patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease

TL;DR: EF assessed by stress gated Rb-82 PET imaging provides independent and incremental prognostic information and, hence, should be routinely incorporated in risk assessment.
