Myocardial perfusion scan accuracy in detection of coronary artery disease - Comparison with exercise stress test [Persian]
Introduction: In patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) noninvasive evaluation for detection of ischemia is important to avoid invasive interventions like angiography. Exercise stress test is conventionally the first study used in evaluation of CAD. Considering the noninvasive nature of the myocardial perfusion scan, we decided to compare its accuracy with stress test. Methods: Patie...
متن کاملDiagnostic Accuracy of Gated-SPECT Myocardial Perfusion Imaging and Exercise Stress Test for Diagnosis of Coronary Artery Disease
Background and Objective:Accurate diagnosis of CAD using noninvasive procedures is of great importance. The aim of the study is to assess diagnostic accuracy of myocardial perfusion imaging and compare it with exercise stress test in order to decipher a more accurate and cost-effective method for CAD detection. Materials and Methods:Of 430 consecutive patients suspected with CAD, 104 performed...
متن کاملAccuracy of dobutamine stress echocardiography in detecting coronary artery disease.
The diagnostic accuracy of dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) (incremental infused doses of 5, 10, 20 and 30 micrograms/kg/min) was evaluated in 141 patients who underwent coronary arteriography within 2 weeks of DSE. All patients were being evaluated for known or suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). DSE was interpreted blindly as normal or showing evidence of CAD, depending on the pr...
متن کاملGender differences in the accuracy of dobutamine stress echocardiography for the diagnosis of coronary artery disease.
The accuracy of dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) for the diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD) has not been yet evaluated in women. We studied the effect of gender on the accuracy of DSE for the diagnosis of CAD in 306 consecutive patients (210 men and 96 women) with limited exercise capacity and suspected myocardial ischemia who underwent coronary angiography within 3 months of DS...
متن کاملImpact of hypertension on the accuracy of exercise stress myocardial perfusion imaging for the diagnosis of coronary artery disease.
AIM To compare the accuracy of exercise stress myocardial perfusion single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging for the diagnosis of coronary artery disease in patients with and without hypertension. METHODS A symptom limited bicycle exercise stress test in conjunction with 99m technetium sestamibi or tetrofosmin SPECT imaging was performed in 332 patients (mean (SD) age, 57 (1...
