2008, International Journal of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :All HCM patients underwent coronary angiography, but control subjects were diagnosed as not having myocardial ischemia by means of exercise myocardial scintigraphy. The exercise myocardial scintigraphy, however, has been reported to have a good predictive value for the presence of coronary stenosis [31]. HCM patients or control subjects did not always reach the maximal predicted heart rate; inadequate exercise may modify the result in the present study.
Multidetector computed tomography coronary artery plaque predictors of stress-induced myocardial ischemia by SPECT
2008, AtherosclerosisCitation Excerpt :Interestingly, there was no association between the distribution of MDCT plaque and the SPECT abnormalities, suggesting that MDCT atherosclerosis identifies increased risk but does not localize the area of ischemia. This is similar to prior findings demonstrating variable correlation between the distribution of obstructive plaque by invasive coronary angiography and SPECT abnormalities [18–20]. Given that the majority of myocardial infarctions do not occur on the site of an identifiable obstructive culprit lesion, our findings suggest that atherosclerotic plaque burden on MDCT beyond obstructive disease alone will be useful for identification of high-risk patients [21].
