(123)I‐BMIPP single‐photon emission computed tomography for diagnosing chest pain in patients with nonobstructive coronary angiograms: Takotsubo or vasospasm?

The decreased 123I‐BMIPP uptake, while having normal perfusion, in the correspondent coronary artery territory is caused by a delayed metabolic recovery after the recovery of perfusion. This phenomenon termed ischemic memory can clearly differentiate vasospastic angina from other chest pain syndrome...
