Abstract

In due course, magnetic resonance myocardial perfusion imaging will probably replace SPECT as the most widely used non-invasive method for detecting reversible myocardial ischaemia

  • MRI, magnetic resonance imaging
  • MRMPI, magnetic resonance myocardial perfusion imaging
  • SPECT, single photon emission computed tomography
