Cardiac PET: Metabolic and functional imaging of the myocardium
2013, Seminars in Nuclear MedicineCitation Excerpt :However, the studies included in this review were heterogeneous in terms of design, many of them were subjected to significant referral bias, and there were no studies that directly compared the 2 modalities within the same study. Several studies performed a direct comparison between 82Rb PET and Thallium SPECT,22-24 whereas 1 compared 82Rb PET and Tc-99m SPECT with ECG gating but without using attenuation correction.25 82Rb PET showed superior accuracy in all of these studies and the results are summarized in Figure 1.
Does rubidium-82 PET have superior accuracy to SPECT perfusion imaging for the diagnosis of obstructive coronary disease?: A systematic review and meta-analysis
2012, Journal of the American College of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :A large proportion of both Rb-82 PET (10 of 15) and Tc-99m SPECT (5 of 8) studies were affected by referral bias whereby the referral for ICA may have been influenced by the results of the perfusion scan. In 4 of 15 PET (7,9,24,25) and 6 of 8 (10,11,13,14,27,28) SPECT studies it was unclear whether the ICA results were blinded to the results of the perfusion imaging. Patient withdrawals and non-interpretable results were not reported in the majority of both SPECT and PET studies, primarily due their retrospective nature.
