Patients with chest pain may have normal coronary arteries and suffer from microvascular angina (MVA). The aim of this study was to determine if patients with suspected MVA have lower global myocardial perfusion (global MP) during adenosine stress compared with healthy controls and coronary artery disease (CAD) patients and to determine if there are sex differences in global MP.
