Myocardial perfusion CT: various scan techniques and clinical implications

Kurzfassung: Recent developments in CT technology allow myocardial perfusion CT imaging during pharmacologic stress. In previous studies that have reported the feasibility and additional diagnostic values of myocardial perfusion CT imaging, various scan techniques, imaging protocols, and stress agents have been used. This means that the protocol of CT perfusion has not been optimized yet. This lecture provides an overview of various scan techniques, imaging protocols and clinical implications of myocardial CT perfusion. Various scan techniques Myocardial CT perfusion imaging can be divided into static and dynami…
