transient ischemic left ventricular dilation (tid) is a marker of severe and extensive coronary artery disease as well as an increased risk of adverse outcomes. the patients with more severe and extensive ischemia, multivessel-type of perfusion abnormality as well as patients with left anterior descending artery (lad) territory perfusion abnormality have more probability of having tid. evaluati...

introduction: the main purpose of this study was to compare transient ischemic dilation (tid) ratios in spect-low dose ct and spect myocardial perfusion imaging (mpi) by application of different quantitative programs and quantify the possible shift in the upper normal limits of tid ratio in the spect-ct mpi. methods: 149 patients with low pre-test probability for coronary artery disease (cad),...

  Transient ischemic left ventricular dilation (TID) is a marker of severe and extensive coronary artery disease as well as an increased risk of adverse outcomes. The patients with more severe and extensive ischemia, multivessel-type of perfusion abnormality as well as patients with left anterior descending artery (LAD) territory perfusion abnormality have more probab...

OBJECTIVE To assess the clinical significance of transient ischemic dilation of the left ventricle during myocardial perfusion scintigraphy with stress/rest sestamibi. METHODS The study retrospectively analyzed 378 patients who underwent myocardial perfusion scintigraphy with stress/rest sestamibi, 340 of whom had a low probability of having ischemia and 38 had significant transient defects. ...

UNLABELLED Transient ischemic dilation of the left ventricle found on SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) is an accepted marker of severe and extensive coronary artery disease (CAD) and poor prognosis. The influence of other clinical variables on the incidence of transient ischemic dilation is less certain. The aim of this study was to investigate clinical factors that may influence the in...

detection and modification of the risk factors of stroke may be the most effective strategy for preventing its often irreversible consequences. a longitudinal prospective study was implemented to evaluate the effect of several risk factors on the course of cerebrovascular disease. the study groups were composed of 3s8 normal volunteers, and 308 patients with transient ischemic attacks. the two ...
