Adding attenuation corrected images in myocardial perfusion imaging reduces the need for a rest study
BACKGROUND: The American Society of Nuclear Cardiology and the Society of Nuclear Medicine conclude that incorporation of attenuation corrected (AC) images in myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) will improve diagnostic accuracy. The aim was to investigate the value of adding AC stress-only image...
