Adenosine-induced stress myocardial perfusion imaging using dual-source cardiac computed tomography.
OBJECTIVES This study sought to determine the feasibility of performing a comprehensive cardiac computed tomographic (CT) examination incorporating stress and rest myocardial perfusion imaging together with coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA). BACKGROUND Although cardiac CT can identify coronary stenosis, very little data exist on the ability to detect stress-induced myocardial per...
متن کاملMultidetector Computed Tomography in Cerebrovascular Disease: CT Perfusion Imaging
Multidetector Computed Tomography in Cerebrovascular Disease: CT Perfusion Imaging, edited by Drs. Miles, Eastwood, and Konig, is a detailed technical monograph that does for CT perfusion imaging (CTP) what Cerebral MR Perfusion Imaging: Principles and Current Applications (book and CD-ROM), by Sorensen and Reimer (Thieme: Stuttgart/New York, 2000), did for MR perfusion imaging (MRP). The inten...
متن کاملTransmural perfusion gradient in adenosine triphosphate stress myocardial perfusion computed tomography.
BACKGROUND The aim of the present study was to assess semi-quantification of myocardial perfusion using adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-stress myocardial perfusion computed tomography (MPCT) in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). METHODS AND RESULTS Seventeen patients with CAD underwent ATP-stress MPCT, stress myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) and coronary angiography (CAG). With ...
متن کامل[Adenosine stress protocols for myocardial perfusion imaging].
BACKGROUND/AIM Treadmill test combined with myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) is a commonly used technique in the assessment of coronary artery disease. There are many patients, however, who may not be able to undergo treadmill test. Such patients would benefit from pharmacological stress procedures combined with MPS. The most commonly used pharmacological agents for cardiac stress are co...
متن کاملQualitative and Quantitative Assessment of Adenosine Triphosphate Stress Whole-Heart Dynamic Myocardial Perfusion Imaging Using 256-Slice Computed Tomography
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation of the qualitative transmural extent of hypoperfusion areas (HPA) using stress dynamic whole-heart computed tomography perfusion (CTP) imaging by 256-slice CT with CTP-derived myocardial blood flow (MBF) for the estimation of the severity of coronary artery stenosis. METHODS AND RESULTS Eleven patients underwent adenosine tri...
