Improved Prediction of Major Cardiac Events by Gated Myocardial Perfusion Imaging
TL;DR: A G-SPECT approach can contribute to better risk-stratification and to appropriate selection of prophylactic or therapeutic strategy in a cost-effective manner in patients at an increased risk for future cardiac events.
Journal ArticleDOI
Splenic response ratio in vasodilator myocardial perfusion imaging
TL;DR: The use of splenic response ratio by Bami et al. as a metric for adequacy of vasodilator stress and its additional application as a prognostic marker in patients with relatively normal rubidium positron emission tomography myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) studies is a very logical extension of SRR use in cardiac magnetic resonance (MR) studies.

Reza Omidi,Mohammad Hosein Zare,Hamed Zamani,Saman Dalvand,Hamidreza Masjedi,Seid Kazem Razavi-Ratki,Shiva Rahbar +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors assess the radiation dose delivered to patients from common diagnostic nuclear medicine examinations and estimate the risk of exposure-induced death (REID), in addition, the frequency of nuclear medicine procedures were evaluated from 2015-2018.

Technical Considerations for Dynamic Myocardial Computed Tomography Perfusion as Part of a Comprehensive Evaluation of Coronary Artery Disease Using Computed Tomography
TL;DR: In this article , the authors provide a review of critical parameters in the design and execution of dynamic myocardial computed tomography perfusion (DM-CTP) to optimize each step of the examination and avoid common mistakes.

Tl-201 dosing for CZT SPECT: More new information
TL;DR: Thallium-201 was the original and the only myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) tracer, first for planar and later for SPECT imaging (1980s), for almost 15 years before introduction of Tc-99m-based tracers knocked Tl-201 from the pedestal.
