Prediction of 8-year cardiovascular outcomes in patients with systemic arterial hypertension: Value of stress 99mTc-tetrofosmin myocardial perfusion imaging in a high-risk cohort

Patients with normal stress MPI have a significantly better prognosis as compared with those with an abnormal study, up to 5 years after the test is performed.
