The high photon flux and stable distribution of the myocardial perfusion agent 99mTc-labeled sestamibi allow the perfusion data to be acquired in an electrocardiographic (ECG)-gated mode, such that information on resting regional wall thickening may be obtained simultaneously with stress perfusion data. The objective of this study was to assess whether visual analysis of resting regional wall thickening provided by ECG-gated acquisition of 99mTc-labeled sestamibi stress perfusion images correlates with and predicts the reversibility of stress-induced perfusion defects, potentially obviating the need for rest imaging.
