Journal Article · · Semin. Nucl. Med.; (United States)
Exciting developments in radiopharmaceuticals and instrumentation have established the field of cardiovascular nuclear medicine as an extremely useful clinical tool. Depending on the patient's problem, one may elect to perform myocardial perfusion images with /sup 201/Tl, infarct avid images with /sup 99m/Tc, or wall motion and other functional studies with multiple gated acquisition techniques. Often, a combination of these studies is useful in elucidating a particular problem.
