“…As has been previously demonstrated (6), we also found that increasing degrees of defect reversibility and increasing extent and severity of the stress defect provided substantial incremental prognostic value. The availability of 99m Tc perfusion agents provides the opportunity to gate images and, thus, obtain a post-stress EF, leading several authors to predict that this would offer additional incremental prognostic value (6,20). This potential has only recently been evaluated.…”
