“…Recent developments allowing for physiologic assessment by MSCT may enhance its diagnostic utility for identifying hemodynamically significant bridges. Stress SPECT can detect reversible myocardial perfusion defects in patients with myocardial bridging and relate the amount of ischemia to the degree of systolic luminal narrowing (34,35). Contrast stress echocardiography has been reported for myocardial bridge detection but is less validated (36).…”
