Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Myocardial single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is an established noninvasive method for the assessment of the functional significance of coronary artery stenoses. Intracoronary pressure measurements to determine fractional flow reserve (FFR) are increasingly performed during coronary angiography whenever an immediate decision regarding possible intervention is required. We hypothesized that the regional summed difference score (SDSr), reflecting reversible perfusion de...     »
