Adding attenuation corrected images in myocardial perfusion imaging reduces the need for a rest study.

Trägårdh, Elin LU ; Valind, Sven LU and Edenbrandt, Lars LU (2013) In BMC Medical Imaging 13(April,1).
Abstract
The American Society of Nuclear Cardiology and the Society of Nuclear Medicine conclude that incorporation of attenuation corrected (AC) images in myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) will improve diagnostic accuracy. The aim was to investigate the value of adding AC stress-only images for the decision whether a rest study is necessary or not.
