Advances in cardiovascular imaging have resulted in the development of multiple noninvasive techniques to evaluate myocardial perfusion and coronary anatomy, each of which has unique strengths and ...

Thirteen patients out of 36 (36.1%) showed abnormal myocardial perfusion scan. Of the 23 females patients, 9 (39.1%) had abnormal Tc-99m MIBI SPECT and 14 (60.9%) showed normal scan. Of the 13 males 4 ...

This exciting technique has gained rapid acceptance in routine clinical practice. This technique is similar to a standard SPECT study, except that a number of images (8 or 16) are acquired at each ...

Patients who receive cardiac positron emission testing (PET) imaging instead of single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) scan experienced a significant increase in the detection of severe ...

Until the early 20th century, the human life expectancy was less than 50 years, and infections were often fatal. Only in the past century have humans, on average, lived long enough for cardiovascular ...

The nuclear stress test can show how blood flows through your heart muscles. This reveals how well the heart pumps blood and areas of your heart muscles that do not get enough blood. Nuclear stress is ...

In patients who have acute myocardial infarction with cardiogenic shock, early revascularization of the culprit artery by means of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) improves outcomes. However, ...

The collaboration is anticipated to find new clinical pathways and aid in improving patient outcomes via imaging solutions.
