Improved diagnostic accuracy for coronary artery disease detection with quantitative 3D 82Rb PET myocardial perfusion imaging
To establish requirements for normal databases for quantitative rubidium-82 (82Rb) PET MPI analysis with contemporary 3D PET/CT technology and reconstruction methods for maximizing diagnostic accuracy of total pe...

Integrated myocardial flow reserve (iMFR) assessment: diffuse atherosclerosis and microvascular dysfunction are more strongly associated with mortality than focally impaired perfusion
Although treatment of ischemia-causing epicardial stenoses may improve symptoms of ischemia, current evidence does not suggest that revascularization improves survival. Conventional myocardial ischemia imaging...

Integrated myocardial flow reserve (iMFR) assessment: optimized PET blood flow quantification for diagnosis of coronary artery disease
Distinguishing obstructive epicardial coronary artery disease (CAD) from microvascular dysfunction and diffuse atherosclerosis would be of immense benefit clinically. However, quantitative measures of absolute...

Multi-center, multi-vendor validation of deep learning-based attenuation correction in SPECT MPI: data from the international flurpiridaz-301 trial
Although SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) is susceptible to artifacts from soft tissue attenuation, most scans are performed without attenuation correction. Deep learning-based attenuation corrected (D...

“Virtual” attenuation correction: improving stress myocardial perfusion SPECT imaging using deep learning
Myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) using single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is widely used for coronary artery disease (CAD) evaluation. Although attenuation correction is recommended to dimini...

Effects of two patient-specific dosing protocols on measurement of myocardial blood flow with 3D 82Rb cardiac PET
Clinical measurement of myocardial blood flow (MBF) has emerged as an important component of routine PET-CT assessment of myocardial perfusion in patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease. Altho...
