The Benefits of Prone SPECT Myocardial Perfusion Imaging in Reducing Both Artifact Defects and Patient Radiation Exposure
BACKGROUND: Prone imaging has been demonstrated to minimize diaphragmatic and breast tissue attenuation. OBJECTIVES: To determine the role of prone imaging on the reduction of unnecessary rest perfusion studies and coronary angiographies performed, thus decreasing investigation time and radiation ex...
