Times Are Changing: Why Quantitative Myocardial Perfusion Is to Be Preferred Over Qualitative Myocardial Perfusion
Simultaneous dual isotope 201Tl/99mTc myocardial perfusion imaging using CZT cameras: Clinical utility or technical challenge?
Low dose in nuclear cardiology: state of the art in the era of new cadmium-zinc-telluride cameras
The use of myocardial perfusion imaging has seen a tremendous growth during the last decade and has become the most commonly used non-invasive imaging tool for risk stratification in patients with suspected and known coronary artery disease. Adherence to radiation safety best practices varied significantly between laboratories but the possibility to use the new cameras in nuclear cardiology can reduce dramatically the radiation dose without losing accuracy. Moreover, the physical characteristics of ultrafast technology could be able to open new doors for the evaluation of old parameters, changing the impact of nuclear cardiology in the diagnostic strategies
