The coronary artery abnormalities in Kawasaki disease (KD) often cause myocardial ischemia. Previous publications have described the use of thallium 201 myocardial perfusion imaging to determine the extent of ischemia in patients with KD. The technetium perfusion agents offer better resolution and may offer additional information about ventricular function in these patients. This study was performed to evaluate myocardial perfusion in patients with KD through use of technetium 99m tetrofosmin (TF) in conjunction with dipyridamole vasodilator stress.
