Diagnostic Value of 13N-Ammonia Myocardial Perfusion PET: Added Value of Myocardial Flow Reserve

TL;DR: The quantification of MFR in 13N-ammonia PET/CT MPI provides a substantial added diagnostic value for detection of CAD, particularly in patients with normal MPI results, which helps to unmask clinically significant CAD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Absolute Myocardial Blood Flow and Flow Reserve Assessed by Gated SPECT with Cadmium-Zinc-Telluride Detectors Using 99mTc-Tetrofosmin: Head to Head Comparison with 13N-Ammonia PET.

TL;DR: The estimation of absolute MBF index values by CZT SPECT MPI with 99mTc-tetrofosmin is technically feasible, although hyperemic values are significantly lower than from PET with 13N-ammonia, resulting in a substantial underestimation of MFR.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coronary computed tomography angiography with model-based iterative reconstruction using a radiation exposure similar to chest X-ray examination

TL;DR: Coronary computed tomography angiography acquisition with diagnostic image quality is feasible at an ultra-low radiation dose of 0.21 mSv, e.g. in the range reported for a postero-anterior and lateral chest X-ray.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging on human lymphocyte DNA integrity

TL;DR: The present findings indicate that CMR should be used with caution and that similar restrictions may apply as for X-ray-based and nuclear imaging techniques in order to avoid unnecessary damage of DNA integrity with potential carcinogenic effect.
