pubmed:abstractText |
Technetium 99m-labeled myocardial agents have been proposed as an alternative to thallium 201. The aim of this study was to assess retrospectively the accuracy of exercise myocardial 99mTc-tetrofosmin scintigraphy with tomographic imaging (SPECT) in a large group population in the evaluation of coronary artery disease. Furthermore we evaluated the relation between the severity of scintigraphic impaired myocardial perfusion and the angiographic coronary artery stenoses in patients without myocardial infarction and with stenosis localized exclusively in the proximal segment of the 3 main coronary arteries.
