The importance of mild inferolateral wall ischemia on myocardial single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) with ^sup 99m^Tc-MIBI using 20 left ventricular segments model

Headnote

Keywords: Mild inferolateral ischemia, SPECT, Myocardial perfusion imaging.

Introduction: The mild ischemia in the inferolateral wall on myocardial perfusion imaging was seen frequently in practice .The aim of this study is to assess the importance of the above issue on myocardial perfusion SPECT with coronary angiography.

Methods: All patients with mild ischemia of the inferolateral wall on the myocardial single photon emission computed tomography with 99mTc-MIBI using 20 left ventricular segments model were enrolled to this study. For all cases, a questionnaire including type...
