DOI: 10.1007/s12350-020-02448-y
Abstract: No methodology is available to distinguish truly reduced myocardial flow reserve (MFR) in positron emission tomography myocardial perfusion imaging (PET MPI) from seemingly impaired MFR due to inadequate adenosine response. The adenosine-induced splenic switch-off (SSO)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/heartjnl-2020-bsci.29
Abstract: Introduction Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT) has many advantages over Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography in Myocardial Perfusion Imaging (MPI). However, UK availability, has been limited. We describe a new Rubidium (Rb) PET MPI service;… read more here.
