Excerpt

Investigations during the first 2 decades of modern nuclear cardiology focused on methodological refinements and establishing a solid foundation for myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) as a reliable method for detecting coronary artery disease (CAD). The 2 decades after that emphasized the prognostic value of the test in virtually every group of patients and also challenged the prevailing wisdom that coronary angiography is the undisputed “gold standard” by showing that a physiological assessment is even more meaningful than anatomic descriptors when predicting the outcome of CAD patients.1
