Abstract:Purpose
We evaluated the impact on cardiovascular outcome of coronary revascularization-induced changes in ischemic total perfusion defect (ITPD) and myocardial flow reserve (MFR) as assessed by 82Rb positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) imaging.
Methods
The study included 102 patients referred to 82Rb PET/CT myocardial perfusion imaging before and after coronary revascularization. All patients were followed for the occurrence of card… Show more
