DOI: 10.1016/s0735-1097(20)32274-9
Abstract: Prior MI or revascularization without MI are often equated as known CAD; however, their relative prognostic influence is unknown. We compared their prognostic significance in patients undergoing SPECT MPI. Patients undergoing SPECT MPI between 1992… read more here.
