Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) are a comprehensive disease concept characterized by
acute myocardial ischemia caused by disruption of coronary artery plaque and consequent …

This joint position paper illustrates the role and the correct use of echocardiography,
radionuclide imaging with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography …

This review summarises the evidence for the role of myocardial perfusion scintigraphy
(MPS) in patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease. It is the product of a …

Background Although single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and positron
emission tomography (PET) myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) have evolved considerably …

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between myocardial
ischemia detected by myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) with single-photon emission …

We aimed at establishing the optimal scan time for nuclear myocardial perfusion imaging
(MPI) on an ultrafast cardiac γ-camera using a novel cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) solid …

Background—Positron-emission tomography (PET) tracers for myocardial perfusion are
commonly labeled with short-lived isotopes that limit their widespread clinical use. 18F-BMS …

Purpose: To prospectively determine the accuracy of 64-section computed tomographic (CT)
angiography for the depiction of coronary artery disease (CAD) that induces perfusion …

Purpose To assess the diagnostic performance of a novel ultrafast cardiac gamma camera
with cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) solid-state semiconductor detectors for nuclear …

The favorable nuclear properties in combination with the rich coordination chemistry make
technetium-99m the radioisotope of choice for the development of myocardial perfusion …
