Excerpt

SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) with ECG-gated equilibrium wall motion analysis is the most utilized non-invasive tool for the diagnosis and management of coronary disease. It provides precise localization of coronary stenoses, global left ventricular (LV) function, regional wall motion, and asynchrony. Recent analyses indicate that sensitivities for detecting coronary disease are in the range of 76% to 81%, with specificities as high as 71%.1 MPI also imparts significant prognostic information. The extent of perfusion defects and their degree of reversibility correlate with adverse coronary events including MI and cardiac death.2 This applies to MPI performed either with exercise or pharmacologic stress. …
