Stress-only upright and supine CZT imaging was non-inferior statistically to attenuation-corrected stress-only Anger camera imaging. Nevertheless, stress-only CZT imaging may be associated with reduced diagnostic sensitivity for some readers compared to attenuation-corrected Anger camera images, which may be less acceptable clinically compared to stress plus rest images.
Increased upright TID measurements on a CZT camera are associated with extensive CAD. The upright TID measurements can serve in an adjunctive role to SSS, and may be most effective in patients with a normal upright exercise LVEF.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
