“…This normalized immediately after PTCA and was maintained al follow-up in these patients with out interceding ischemic events. Slightly different results were obtained by Uren et al [23] who found that myocardial perfusion reserve after angio plasty did not recover as quickly. 1 lenes et al [24] demon strated in 8 patients with acute coronary occlusion that myocardial perfusion recovered promptly after successful thrombolysis with tissue-type plasminogen activator ( fig.…”

Positron emission tomography is an intrinsically quantitative tool which permits the quantitative assessment (i.e., in ml/g/min) of regional myocardial perfusion. Oxygen-15-labeled water is the only positron-emitting flow tracer which is freely diffusible within the myocardium. It has been used extensively to define normal myocardial perfusion physiology, as well as to delineate the effects of numerous cardiac diseases on myocardial perfusion and to assess the efficacy of therapeutic interventions. This brief review summarizes the major observations that have been made in humans using oxygen-15 water and positron emission tomography for quantitative estimation of regional myocardial perfusion.
