DOI: 10.1007/s12350-017-1135-1
Abstract: Coronary microvascular dysfunction has recently emerged as a major independent prognostic factor and can be invasively assessed by coronary flow reserve (CFR) and the index of microvascular resistance (IMR). The incremental prognostic value of myocardial… read more here.

Masking Effect of Radiopharmaceutical Dose Extravasation During Injection on Myocardial Perfusion Defects During SPECT Myocardial Perfusion Imaging: A Potential Source of False Negative Result
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Molecular Imaging and Radionuclide Therapy"
DOI: 10.4274/mirt.88942
Abstract: Proper interpretation of SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) is primarily based on strict adherence to standard procedural protocols from patient preparation to image processing and display. Inadvertent faulty injection of the radiopharmaceutical and, consequently, dose… read more here.
